Default need tires for skinnies

where is everyone buying tires for some skinnies. I would prefer the cheapest available whether its online or at a local place since i will only use them at the track? thanks guys for the help.

call up your local pep boys and see if they still have any euro metric radials 165R15 still in stock...they are discontinued also but you may get lucky.

i have been running them on my car for a while and they are awesome tires for skinnies and only 25 bucks a pop. out of 5 pepboys around me only 1 had them still instock they only had 4 left like a year ago and i took 2...yesterday i need to get a new one because i got a staple in my sidewall and luckly they had the 2 tires that i did not take still there...i took both

oh ya when you ask for 165R15 they will try and tell you that its not a real size...just tell them to run it...they are for 60s VW Bettles

oh and i think they are rated 1500lbs per tires instead of 1000lbs for the kumos or firestones
