14 inch tires
« on: April 04, 2019, 11:37:49 PM »
how tall and wide 14 inch tires can i get these days.i had some hoosier dot drag tires on last summer.it seems like 26 tall and 9-9.5 tread width is the biggest i can find.do they sell them 27 or taller or is 26 inches about the limit on a 14 inch rim

This are 27 inch but spendy, you can get some BF Goodrich at 26.5.

The root of this problem is that nobody uses 14" rims anymore.  Haven't been near main stream in a long time.  Hoosier lists exactly zero 14" drag tires.  M/T - one size.  Time to buy some 15" rims for use with any drag type tires.  Coker would be where I'd look for street tires.  I sold two OLD but nice 225-60 x 14 tires on magnum rims this last weekend for $150 - because you can't buy them anywhere anymore.

There are high performance 14" tires now available, but very low profile for the Miata autocross guys.  Not tall enough but wide.

14" tires are still available.. I recently bought a set for my 66 Fairlane from Tire Rack, Cooper Cobras 215 70R x 14 for the front and 225 70R 14 for the rear. Granted, there are not as many sizes available anymore but if you need a common size there shouldn't be too much trouble finding something that'll fit.
