Everybody; Can anyone suggest a brand and size that will work on the a
TR250 wire wheel? NOTE; these are the 48 spoke, not the 60 spoke like
the TR6, and therefore are 4.5 wide. I've been searching the tire sites,
and only the $150.00 plus tires are 185/75/15s. The others don't make
anything other than a 65 aspect ratio. 205s are too wide too work with
the wire wheel, right? Suggestions solicited. Jerry Oliver Olympia,
WA.    68 TR250 66TR4A (2) 62TR4.
