When I brought up this same discussion on the AACA forum many owners chimed in about the problems they had with tires purchased from Coker. My tires were supposedly made by BFG and when they started to crumble about the whitewall against the rim, Coker told me that the factory in Colombia had to shutdown and they couldn't get replacements. I called every month or so and was given the same story. After almost a year of run-around the one person who answered the phone at Coker's looked up my order and told me they were no longer guaranteed because time had expired and laughed at me. When I posted this over on the AACA forum, there were many negative comments also complaining about Coker tires and service. The manager at Cokers posted a message for me to call him which I did. They finally did honor the guarantee on that tire. Within a few months, the other tires started to have the same problem. I didn't want to go through the hassle again and ordered a set of Diamondbacks thru Mid-Atlantic Packards because they earn a little money on the order. I have traveled many miles on the Dbacks, on long trips and short ones. I have no complaints about their tires.
