Any recent leads on stock 12 inch tires...

[FordFestiva]

Hello,

I am in the market for new tires and will either stay with the 12" if locally available or swap out to 14" rims. Anyone have leads on some new fresh 12" tires?

Thanks,
Al

Al, do you have a Big O or Discount tire store back there. Check with them.

But if you switched to Metro 13" wheels, imagine some of this size:

Or a little taller, yet cheaper!:

I am going to try the Discount Tire in the neighborhood. I also have a lead on a used set of 14" rims with 195/60/14 tires already mounted. I am guessing they may rub the rear strut perch. I usually drive the car myself so there is not much of a load. Tirerack only shows one tire available.
