I don't know if introductions are 'de rigeur' on this group, but here goes. I'm Blaine of Albuquerque (sounds like a title of nobility? no?). For the past 15...
Hi Blaine, ... I've been looking for 165 SR 15 or 165 HR 15 for a Porsche 914 just recently and was a bit dismayed how hard it is to find decent tires of that...

Just a quick note before heading out to the movie. I started scanning my 1970 parts book and putting it on the group's file area. Intro section is there now. ...

... Coker apparently buys the original manufacturing equipment for the tires it reproduces. I'd think if there are any large differences it could only be the...

Okay, don't everyone get excited all at once. I've got much of my 1970 parts manual scanned and uploaded to the file section. I've saved the biggest two...
Hey all: I have used Coker tires on my Cadillac Eldorados and have had no problem. They are the GM spec radials with the 1.6"white wall. They carry the 5,200...
Hi John, ... Well, I'm not sure when they stopped producing the originals, but if you managed to find those 165 SR 15 you can be assured they are already aged...
I just checked, and Coker lists the shows they will be attending on their website at: http://www.coker.com/store/customer/home.php They have 165R15 in 3...
Well yeah, that's the Taiwanese/Chinese/Mailaysian/whatever stuff, the no-name product. With those you need to look at the speed rating very carefully and make...
These are listed with Load/Speed rating of 86T http://tinyurl.com/opa6x The Signet brand tires I bought a year ago are the same (but a check of the Signet site...
Okay, I give up! I'm gonna boldly fish for a kind word - does anyone care that I've spent several hours scanning all but the two largest sections of the VW...
... Hash: SHA1 T rating is up to 118 mph, so I'd think it's OK. jens ... - ---------------------------------- Jens Vagelpohl Webmaster www.type4.org ... ...
Blaine, This is certainly a good idea, but I can't speak for anyone else because I have my own parts manual. A couple of them, actually. :) jens ... Jens...
I think "right on" at least. I am going to start the big restoration of my '74 412 later this year. And I'm looking for exactly this stuff for my project....
Personally, I think it's cool and I don't have a 411! Don't look for recognition, just do it and know that others will love you for it, whether they know it...
Who else (besides Jens) has one of these beauties? We would all be better served with a later publication as it would include info for more model years. -bb...
... I've looked at mine (two US parts books, one German) and they are all from 8/71 with three updates, taking them through the end of the 1972 model year from...
I suspect Jens is pretty close to right about the microfiche date. I got my first VW in '69 and remember the parts books at the dealer. But I recall that by...
Cliff Crate has a parts book with 411 & 412 stuff listed 1969 thru 1973. I have a parts book for 69-72 (411 only). But I do have a Type 4 Fiche (411 & 412...
