My newly aquired 63 Conv needs new tires, and I'd like to fill the wheel wells. Currently have 175 70R 13's on 70's aluminum 5 slots. Appear 5.5 or 6". Largest, (tallest) I can find is at Discount Tire Direct. They're long wearing, "620" - 80k "warranty", under $50 each inc road hazard, free SH. But I'd like 195's or 205 70's or 65's. Any ideas? Will they fit? I'm too old to worry about much more that not getting an all weather wimp tread. Even checked Canadian Tire last night. Generally re-labeled Michelin and Goodyear. Nada
I will install and balance myself... |

Hankook makes a 185/80 R13 which I found at Lisac's Tire in Butte,Montana. Most any American Tire Center should be able to get them for you. Narrow whitewall too. I bought six and am ready to go get them installed now that I'm back at home in Arizona. My speedo reads 50 at an actual 37 with the present 175/70R13's that the prior owner put on so some improvement is expected. 360 wear, Traction A temp B so not bad for daily drivers.
Mark Lisac in Butte had over 100 in his warehouse if you can't find them anywhere else and he shipped some to Texas when I mention the purchase on another forum. Jim Johnson 63 convertible Chandler, Arizona |

Clark's sells these for $69 each. I'm curious how much the local dealer will charge. I just bought 4 new BFGoodrich cheapies from an out of business dealer for $50
