    online tyres? or can you help me source an odd size?

    rediculous request that has a lot of my local tyre shops scratching they're heads. Well except for one that wants to charge me $145ea!

    The size is 155/55 R14 haha, ask no questions, all you need to know is that i have a 6" wide rim and i want stretch, haha, obviously 6" is quite thin so i'm hunting for the thinnest 14" tyre available!

    Please don't just go to the tyre manufacturers websites because yes they list them and no no one can get them . . .

    Many thanks in advance!!! . . . Alex

    i've tried them all without luck, the rep for nankang is looking into it as we speak i'd like the nankangs because they have quite an aggressive tread pattern (directional) which is odd for such a whimpy tire

    If someone knew how to search/read the japan auction websites it'd be cool
