Are the 200s a radial that looks like a bias from Coker tire ?

When I talked to them at the last show they didn't have the 200's in the radials like they do the Wide Ovals, the 200's are bias only, and from what I was told they had no interest at that time to do it either. I suppose being a niche tire for only a specific model they just don't sell enough of them to warrant the effort.

That was last year before the pandemic garbage, don't know if things have changed but judging by the fact that product availability is scarce on other tires I doubt it.

I was fortunate enough to find a set of four for $100 on craigslist back around 2015. They only had a couple short drives on them. The guy put them on his '69 Z to get "the look" and hated them so much he took them off and put radials on. Sometimes you just get lucky when you do a search.
