help with tire sizes

Seems that 235/75/15's are getting harder to find and as a result a bit pricey. Anyone with an e-150 switched sizes? Anyone want to weigh in on what sizes would swap? I'm a tire moron when it comes to changing sizes.and don't want to end up with tires that rub up front.As always thanks for the help. dennis

235/75R15's is a VERY common size. I find it hard to believe they're getting hard to find.

As for other sizes, 215/75R15, 225/75 not sure they make 245/75R15 tires though.

Doesn't seem to be a shortage in that size... and prices are wide ranging.

Maybe it's the area of NY where I live but last year I picked up 2 new wranglers at 160.00/pr installed.Now they're 110.00 and up before install. Must be the price of oil.Even Walmart went up significantly. One local dealer used to sell 'take-offs' at a pretty good price but has stopped for some reason. Guess I'll have to bite the bullet.Thanks again.
