      Can you still get 145's? The last set I ever bought were for a 1983 Renault LeCar and that was 20 years ago.

        Read my post under the link posted by Monsoon. That company has them, but they are more expensive ($40) than the 155/12's.
        You gonna race that thing?

          :p You miss the 3 lug bolts per wheel?

          I ordered a full set of 4 about 5-6 years ago, from tire rack, before they started this non-sense with back ordering. So far as I know the P145's have been on back order at Tire rack for about a year!
          I went with P155's for one car and P175 60 13 for the other!

            I miss the whole car! That little thing was cool! Gas milage like a festiva, a "flip back" roof and it rode like a Cadillac. Wound up buying a 1980 Buick Regal (with a real Buick 350 in it) and got rid of the Renault. It's probably why I like Festivas now.

                I just bought 4 145SR-12 Yokohamas from Tire Rack last week, they should be at my house on Wednesday. They were $42 a piece and their only facility that had them in stock was in Nevada, so shipping was another $55, for a total of $220. Not bad if you ask me.

                  I bought 2 155 80 R12's off of www.tires-easy.com about 10 days ago. The total bill with delivery for the two tires was $87.93. Pretty quick delivery.

                    I scored four Sonar 780's (Cooper tire) from my local small town tire shop. $203 balanced, mounted, and disposal of the old ones.

                    The Sonars are 155/80/12 and the thread pattern looks good. My dream of 14" tires is on the back burner now, because I needed tires fast.
