Anyone running Cragers and redlines? I'm thinking about it. Any photos?

I am running Ralley II's on my 67 with Diamond Back Classic redlines, 225/70/14's. They are the absolute best out there. . . . ten times better than any Coker tire. They are nice and meaty and look great with no writing on the outside. Sorry no pics, but you can reach Diamond Back at 800-922-1642.

The blue '65 in the middle of this page has bias-ply redlines on cragars. Ditto what 70machone (man it hurt typing that, almost like spelling f**d) said regarding the Diamondbacks.

I am running RallyII 22570x15 in the front and I am getting sum rub going into certain driveways. Do you have that problem ?

My 1965 had that problem with 14" bias plys, back in the 70's.
My 67 still does sometimes, with new springs and an OHC 6 rather than a big ol' heavy V-8!!
Oh yeah, I'm running 14" Rally II's and 225x14" radials today,

I'm running 225/70/14 diamonbacks on 14x6 rally I's. I had a rub on my left front inner fender, only with the wheel at full left, and backing up. A rubber mallet fixed that. If you have that problem, you'll see the rub is right where the inner fender bolts to the frame, IIRC. Very minor. I have also noticed a little paint rubbed off of my front sway bar (stock), but have never heard or felt that rub.
