[TR] 165-15 tires in the midwest?

[wbeech]

Khumho 165/80-15 does very nicely at a reasonable cost.  Phil runs them on
his TR4 in St. Paul and speaks well of them.  Phil?

Subject: [TR] 165-15 tires in the midwest?

I got a call over the weekend from a gentleman with a 4A, looking for a
performance tire in 165-15. When I stopped laughing, we had a serious
discussion about the limited choices in our favorite size.

He's in Wisconsin, and apparently the only thing he's managed to find is
Coker's Michelin X tires at $200/corner; Tire Rack doesn't have anything
(perhaps temporary) and Discount tire is apparently no longer carrying their
house brand 165.

Does anyone in that part of the country have better recent data?

Thanks,
chris
