I know this has been addressed before, but it seems to be getter harder
to find tires for my 1979 Midget.
OEM size is 145x13 = unobtainium
"Equivalent" size is 165/70x13, but I see only two listed on tirerack
and neither gets great reviews. Only one I can find locally is a Trazano
H550A for $40, but don't know anything about it.
http://www.trazano.com/p-14-h550a.aspx doesn't even show the treadwear
ratings.
I currently have 155/80x13 tires on it and would like to go
wider/shorter. These, too, are getting hard to find. Even Sams Club is
phasing out of all 13 inch tires.
Can I really go to 175/70x13 without rubbing or rolling the inner
fenders? I've only got about a 1/2 inch clearance as it is.
What to do? What to do?
Thanks.
Lee
Anyone else going to MG2009 in Colorado in June?
