Tires for these bikes are not the same as a standard simplex 2.50 x 26.  They used a 3.00 x 27, which used a different diameter rim.  Being as Coker doesn't make this size, I choose to go with a 3.00 x 21 motorcycle tire.  These are close to the correct rim size, and I have seen an article where these were used with success.  Being that the only tread pattern I could get for these was for a trials bike, they are very aggressive. If I was going to order another pair, I would choose to get 2.75 x 21, as the slightly smaller size would leave a little more frame clearance.

Simply put, there is no source.

What I did in the end, as the trail tires didn't look right at all, was order a pair of these from Coker:

I found that I was not comfortable riding the bike at anything more than 5-10 mph.  When I put the bike up for sale, I let all prospective buyers know the tire situation in my eBay ad.

The coker 2.75 x 21 ribbed tires looked a lot better than the trials tires.  See pictures below.
