    Where can I get a couple of cheap new 235/60/14 tires. They're around $80 everywhere I look but mt son is on a budget and I'd like to save him money to go elsewhere on his comet. These tires really set it off nice. Any suggestions for that fat, meaty look on the rear? They're going on some vintage 60's Cragars.

    I see them as cheap as $70 on the web but,..... If you factor in shipping and then having them mounted and balanced locally, it might be better off getting from a Discount tire, Pep boys, Les Shwab. they may list the tire for more than you can buy online but no shipping cost and you can usually negotiate cheaper prices or discount on the mounting cost. Get a couple printed quotes and make them compete against each other.

    I reccommend 275/60-15s out back.. But if you're sticking with 14's I'd say go with 245s or 235 if you wanna be able to rotate the tires lol

    I also have 14" wheels and when I was lookin for rear tires I couldn't find anything bigger that 245/60's. I got BFGoodrich Radial TA's.
