No they don't Dustin.

I'm amazed also that they haven't repoped the Tiger Paws.I may be interested in a set of E70x14's for my 72 Nova.Still have one of the originals for a spare.The Good Years i have now are going on twenty one years and still look like new.Maybe Kelsey Tire??

-----Kelsey would be a better answer than Coker in my opinion. They have come the closest to correct on their Goodyears. They also seem more willing to listen to collectors about what we want than Coker......Bill S

Kelsey Tire is a stand up operation! I've ordered 5 sets of tires from Kelsey this summer and couldn't agree with Bill more...

Coker will consider molding up a new tire if they have pre booked orders for 500. They did this 8 years ago when the Chrysler 300 Club were looking for a 235-75-14 Radial.
I think Coker already has a lisence for some old Uniroyal Molds.
However to meet demand for E, F and G70-14 they will want to see orders for 500 in each size, that is 375 sets of 4.

If Coker doesn't have this mold license,is Uniroyal,i.e. Michelin tire willing to give their blessing for these to be reproduced today?...and at what cost to the consumer?
I'd be interested in 5 depending on the actual final cost out the door.

Coker has the licensing agreement with Firestone and BFG and U.S. Royal/ Uniroyal. Kelsey has it with Goodyear.

I will be sure to pass along to John Kelsey that so many of you appreciate the efforts that he has made to make sure the reproduction Goodyears have met your needs!!!

I don't mean to take this in a different direction.... I made a quick glance to the thread subject list and instead of seeing &quot;reproduction Uniroyal&quot;, I thought I saw &quot;reproduction Urinal&quot;! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img] The eyes/mind can be wacky sometimes.

No, that would fall under the heading of most all of the other reproduction parts made today......... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
