Still no luck 120-130 1966

There are tyre size calculators all over the web but this one gives you more information than most, including the speedo error.
http://www.tyresite.com/tyrecalc.asp

I was told, back in the summer by a guy who has a business sourcing and selling "classic" sized tyres here in the UK, that Coker had bought the moulds from several of the makers that we have been relying on for reasonable priced tyres. Kuhmo was one of them. It makes sense for these makers, as the demand is low and they then have to be shipped in very small numbers all over the World. As he said, you'd still be able to get them but the price will go up a lot, the same as happened when Coker started selling the Michelin in our size. I've not had anyone else confirm this story but the facts as he told them seemed very plausible.
Dylan, I'd go for 185/65/15 but put them on some 4 1/2" wheels from a P1800. Amazon wagon ones are fine too but they are heavier than the P1800 ones.
Part# 668280 for the P1800 and Part# 670451 for the wagon.
The 185/65 on these rims will have a slightly smaller diameter. Check in the calculator above. Don't know if you have an OD but if you do the small difference will be virtually unnoticeable.
