41Roadmaster Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 Hi Oscar, congratulations! The 41 Buicks are great cars, you're going to have a blast. You asked for the best place to get tires...Coker is who most use for vintage (either the Firestones, BF Goodrich, or the US Royals.) Also, if you don't have Bill Anderson's 1941 Buick Restoration Facts, its worth having. Keep us all posted on your progress!
Guest daveagain909 Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 coker has the tires probably 650/16 tires, wide white walls just a bit less than $210 each for bias tires Search results for: '650-16'
