<VV> 13 inch tires DB

[Bob Gilbert]

Hi ,

Not sure who makes them but Canadian Tire - a large chain here in Canada -
still has the 185/70R13 tires for just under $50 each. The 80 series are
available but are called trailer tires and are a whopping $130 each.

Regards,
Bob

Diamond back are supplied by Maxxis, so they will run out soon as well. The
reason there are more of them left are that they cost about 3 times as much
as the Maxxis did.
 
I too can find some of them over here, but they too are going to be extinct
when stock runs out

I have had no problems getting 185/80/13 tires in any whitewall dimension
from  DIAMONDBACK TIRES out of Conway,  SC.   I have received  tires for
cars and my rampside truck in correct sizing, with no issue, in the past
couple months
 
http://www.dbtires.com/2012_catalog/2012catalog_Lo.pdf      starting on page
18 for US sizes...page 19 are the eurosize 13's for mercedes which are a bit
taller
 
at least in the wide whitewall
 
I restored a 66 vert for Jim Spooner who ordered the correct LM whitewall
from them....are they expensive? yes but no worse than Clarks, and they are
using modern up to date radials and not 40 year old castings.
