Who Still Makes 215/60/R14 tires?

[ktm]

I'm assuming the side walls are the same height as the 215/60/14's cause I would like putting wider 225/60/14's like you have on the back. You running 7 inch wide rims with those?

I am running them on 14x7 Western Turbines. The sidewalls would actually be a little bit higher than 215/60s. The 225/60 tire is very close to the stock rolling diameter of 195/70. I have the tires on all four corners.

Gary is correct about rubbing on the front valence. I do rub the front valence on sharp turns, the right moreso than the left.

I found other makers of 215/60/14 !

Kumho Tires makes a set (T rated) but not sure I like the look of them though

Heres another source for the Touring Plus version (TR rated)

Also Kelly Tires makes a VERY neat style with Raised White Letters and

they're made by Goodyear actually

I believe they are (H rated) from speaking on the phone.

If you go through Les Scwhab Tires you can get a set special order and

delivered in about five days.

Forgive me as I can't find the pictures again online

Goodyear has an Eagle GTII (S & T rated) here which is also very nice set with

others like the Hankook Opitmo (H rated).

Keep in mind that none of these sidewall designs look like my

Goodyear Wingfoot 215/60/14 which is more bubble shaped :hurt:

i ran the yoko avid s/t's on my 260 in that size. two years ago from tirerack, they were about $50 a piece, not too bad.

Federal makes the Formoza FD1 in the 215/60/14, and Les Schwab tires had a listing for the Formoza FD1 in a 225/60/14 6 months ago, even though I can't find that size on Federals website.

Here goes the Kelly Tiresz I was speaking of from

Les Shwabb for $85 each.

I'd just put them on the car if I were you. That process also shortens tire life and might even sacrifice safety.

Ohh :surprised I was thinking along those lines but the little booklet they

gave me said it would increase life and rain traction. But saftey on the otherhand...
