Re: Phoenix tires
I've replied on YB too. The frt. runners are tall compared to others and they work just fine. I've run them and have friends that run them. I've run the bias slicks for a few years in smaller sizes and have friends that run them in 14x32. They work well and last. They are the stickiest gooiest tires I've ever seen. You can load the car and let it sit for a week and when you unload if there is gravel the tire will look like a donut with sprinkles! After a pass your hand will stick to the tire. My biggest complaint running a small tire that is outside the 1/4 panel ate the lower rear is the rubber is brutal to get off of the car. You'll find little pieces of rubber everywhere and the smear and streak when you wash the car. It takes tar remover to get it off.

Re: Phoenix tires
We've run the 9x30x15 bias f9 compound for years in a couple of cars. Good tire that last a long time!

Re: Phoenix tires
We ran Firestone then Phoenix. I've never had any problems with Phoenix tires. My car will hook in a car wash with them.

Re: Phoenix tires
I've run Phoenix tires forever - since Coker took over from Firestone - the quality is as good as your gonna get. I highly recommend them.

Re: Phoenix tires
I've gone to the Coker store to pick up my Phoenix tires and meet my salesman, who isn't there any more. They have a great museum and Coker owns Honest Charlie's Speed Shop too. The price is better through Summit for me with free delivery and no sales tax for now.
For anyone passing through Chattanooga it's worth the stop to see the Coker Museum. |
