[TR] Availability of 165R15 Tyres

[William Brewer]

      I recently bought  set of Vredensteins 165 X 15 from British  
Wire Wheel in Fresno for about $80 each. Made in Holland. I really  
like them. I bought a set of Dayton Chrome spokes and he mounted and  
balanced them right and shipped them to me UPS. I would recommend  
them wholeheartedly.

To the List:
As the local tyre purveyor and installer for most of the British cars  
in our
club/area, I have always had a local source for inexpensive 165R15  
tyres to
fit these cars.    Now those sources have dried up and major  
suppliers like The
Tire Rack have nothing.   Does anyone know of a tyre, either major or
off-brand, of this size, besides those from British Wire Wheel and  
Coker?   No problem
with them, but prices are rather high.   I'm gonna call all the local
suppliers (near Rochester, NY) tomorrow, but wonder if anyone else  
has a source that
he or she would share.   Many thanks!
