Finding 14" rim tires is a nightmare! I need to find a set of 205/75r14s for the crapmaro...

dustybumpers 03-31-2012 07:06 PM

They're out here. I got a set for a trailer from walmart

Old93junk 03-31-2012 07:07 PM

How's the east coast folk?
Cold, rainy and miserable in W. Oregon.

dustybumpers 03-31-2012 07:08 PM

Howdee Dave!

It wanted to rain all day, but we got passed it. Cold enough for a light jacket, but not too bad

Action4478 03-31-2012 07:09 PM

I may have some extra time ...:)It starts with an M ...

fire240 03-31-2012 07:09 PM

Looks liek I made the first page.

dustybumpers 03-31-2012 07:10 PM

Howdee Rick, welcome to Md



There ya go Shaun, glad you could make it!

fire240 03-31-2012 07:12 PM

Afternoon Rick.

big-ugly 03-31-2012 07:14 PM

Now I am in competition with my uncle for all the 14" tires around here.. He drives a Chevy Luv to work everyday, and is currently looking for the exact same size tires I am needing for my car... This could get interesting.. maybe I could work out a deal with him for my remaining 3 good tires?

fire240 03-31-2012 07:19 PM

My dads old truck had 14 inch tires on it. Alway was a pain to find tires for it.

big-ugly 03-31-2012 07:25 PM

I remember tracking down a set for a Nissan pickup I used to drive.. wasn't much fun back then, either.. I found some I like on tire rack, but I am skeptical of ordering tires online.. Might just give my tire-guy a call tomorrow and see what he can do for me.

dustybumpers 03-31-2012 07:27 PM

I just found them on pep boys, ntb, walmart, and mr tire. your posting and not researching. Average price is $35.

fire240 03-31-2012 07:28 PM

Yeah. they are an oddball size at this point Brandon. I looked online for my current tires found a good price cheaper then my tire guy but once I figured in shipping, mounting, balancing and the tire disposal fees it comes out to be more then what my tire guy wants for the same tire. I would also have to wait 1 or 2 weeks to get them. My tire guy had my tires from the wharehouse the same day.

Read what I'm posting before you start bashing :-X22
I said I have found some, but I'm skeptical of buying online. Out of those stores you mentioned, we only have a Walmart in my town, and they do not carry that size. Plus, I wouldn't buy inferior blem tires from Walmart anyways. Also, many tires listed on those sites are trailer tires.. not something I want on a DD car..

fire240 03-31-2012 07:39 PM

Now to figure out what to do an April fools day eve with a roll of caution tape.

big-ugly 03-31-2012 07:40 PM

Put it all over your neighbor's front door before they get home!

fire240 03-31-2012 07:43 PM

Downside is this Brandon. Im still at work. They are off on the weekends like normal people.

fire240 03-31-2012 07:53 PM

Luckily it is friday for me so I can sleep in the next two days.

big-ugly 03-31-2012 07:54 PM

You work at a college, right Shaun?
Have some fun with it. Post that crap all over the cafeteria, or some poor unsuspecting kids dorm room! They wouldn't know what hit 'em!

big-ugly 03-31-2012 08:06 PM

Shaun, you say afternoon, yet it's after 8:00 p.m. here :D IIRC though, you work some pretty screwy hours, kinda like a 2nd shift?

67gt351 03-31-2012 08:06 PM

Hi Shaun how you feeling?

67gt351 03-31-2012 08:07 PM

fire240 03-31-2012 08:08 PM

Old93junk 03-31-2012 08:20 PM

Maybe because there are a lot more older rigs still running out here.
