Well, dad will pay for tires, but I also know that he has a budget, and =
$225/tire for this car doesn't fit within it.

Richard,
  Another thought, since you're a student, obviously on a tight budget =
(been there, done that), try locally for a good, reputable used tire =
store. I have a couple here in Knoxville I use from time to time. $20 =
each mounted and balanced, and they will replace a bad one within a 30 =
day period. Have usually been able to find matching sets with only =
10-15,000 miles on them, usually take-offs from boneyard cars.

> Yeah, I found them through googling. They have one Michelin that's =
$225/each and another that's $379/each. If they were z rated 17 or 18's =
ok, but for 14 inchers, at that price I guess I'll just get the =
Firestones. I wish Pirelli hadn't stopped making the SP4000 in that =
size.

>   Try Coker Tire, they're online and offer a wide line of sizes and =
styles for older cars. I've used them numerous times for old Redlines =
and Firestone Wide Ovals on GM musclecar restorations. I know they also =
carry older style Michelins and Pirellis.

very least. Thanks though...if it's a classic size, maybe some of those =
companies that make whitewalls and stuff would have them.

had/has vintage Detroit iron, as it was standard on just about =
everything in the late 60's.early 70's. The answer is B.F. Goodrich =
Radial T/A's. Still available everywhere. About $240.00 per set of 4.
