Description

1000-15 Dragster Cheater Wide Whitewall Tire

Firestone Dragster tires are cheater slicks, designed for nostalgia drag cars, hot rods and rat rods. Vintage Cheater Dragster Slicks have “just enough” tread to be DOT approved, yet still have the vintage drag race styling. These work well with any of our other Firestone Deluxe Champion bias ply tires. These tires feature genuine whitewall construction, built-in from the very beginning and are also available as blackwalls depending on the look you’re going for. Firestone Dragster Whitewall Cheater Slicks are bias ply tires, and they feature a rubber compound that is great for the street or strip. The four ply polyester construction makes for a sturdy tire for any hot rod application. Coker Tire Company produces these Firestone cheater slicks in brand new molds built from the original Firestone drawings, so they are as authentic as you can get! Made in the USA!

Genuine Wide Whitewall Tire

Typically wide whitewalls run all the way to the bead. Narrow whitewalls will stop somewhere before the bead, resulting in a narrower band of exposed white rubber. Bright white rubber is added directly to the tire sidewall during initial construction of the carcass, resulting in a truly integrated, high-quality product after vulcanization. This style was popular into the early sixties, eventually being replaced by narrow whitewalls altogether.

Bias Ply Construction

Bias ply tire construction is a method that was used from the 1900’s through the 1970’s on passenger cars and light trucks. Bias ply tires feature ply cords that run at a 45 degree angle to the bead, and overlap in a crisscross pattern, depending on how many ply layers are used. This creates a strong tire, but bias ply tires have a tendency to follow breaks or ruts in the pavement. Bias ply tires are the most authentic choice for classic car restorations and traditional hot rod builds. Coker Tire offers a huge variety of bias ply tires for many applications.
