Wanted: 215/70R/14 tires

I am looking for 4 tires for my Thunderbird. I'm ok with decent used ones, just not old hard weather-cracked ones. I'm needing 215/70R14s. Decent tread depth.

Thank you.

spoogeho Solus available at Discount Tire Direct for $86. incl free shipping. Put them on my 86 and they are very good handling, braking, and comfort. Bud

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

I'm having a hard enough time finding 215/70R14s I can't imagine trying to find 225/70R14s

I was able to but 10 hole mustang rims off of craigslist, and 4 new tires for cheaper then replacing 14" tires, of any size.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
