Tires?

blue90lx · 05-22-2008, 11:02 AM

Looking to get a pair of 165 80 15's tires for my weld wheels, don't really want to buy the mickey thompson. If any of you know where i can get these size tires it would be appreciated, because i'm not having any luck finding them. Thanks Robert

Have you tried to order a 165R15?

I know a guy up above Chattanooga has a good bit of them.

His name over on Streetcarforums.com is mac_05evo

Yea...they're just called 165-15... I have a local tire shop here in Bessemer which carries them..like $39 apiece. They always have at least a pair in stock too.

Yeah, i've looked up tire stores on yellowpages.com and nothing everybody says they've been discontinued or they don't have them in stock and they don't know when they can get them. Guess i'll be buying mickey thompsons sportsman tires

I run a kumho 165 80 15. Pretty decent looking tire.

ujslost · 05-23-2008, 07:31 PM

where did you find the kumho? tire rack shows them out of stock.

Robert I found a place that has 6 up in TN.
