Hey guys, I'm looking for some wide tires to fit on 18x14.5 inch rims for my 69 Firebird project.I'd like to stay under 29 inches tall. I've checked few places ,so far no luck,no Hoosier,or M/T has anything, M/T Sportsman S/R 6685 are discontinued,I can get 6686's,but they are way too tall at 31 inches.

Any idea who might have something that will work?

Thanks

You can try a Mickey Thompson 3788R which is a 345/35/18 and probably ideal for an 18x13 but with the 35 series sidewall, can probably make up the difference of the 14.5 but as you're finding, you're kind of in no man's land for tire selections.

I think I have a brand new set of the SR's. I will check when I get back later today.

where did you hear they are discontinued ? They still show up on the MT website and it shows a few retailers having them. I'm building a project around a pair now- I've had them for a few years.
