  • What the *(^% happened to all the 13" tires

    Researching the latest and greatest in the tire world for dedicated ice tires I noticed that there is a distinct lack of tire sizes in 13" in north america/Canada

    However there is still many sizes available in Europe ... What gives?

    What about us Ice Racers!!!!

    Just boosting the Forum ... Come on Jeff! ,answer that one...

    I've got Blizzaks and Yokohama and Dunlop, oh my! What do you require? Of course 155/80R13's are plentiful, more weight on the tire equals better traction?

        Exactly why I'm going to run 14's,the good 13's are certainly limited in 13" sizes.

          We have two Blizzaks left WS-50. The Dunlops and the Yoko's are 175/70R13.

            Don't forget winter tires are mandatory in Quebec this year.
            It's probably sucking up some of the inventory!
