Re: tires???
Go to the wrecker and get some used 14" rims and then get some 195/75/14's as they fit great. there was jsut someone posting something like this the other day. Once again the search is your friend! It look like your mom know's how to use a search
(I am assuming that she googled the tercel and found this site). That is probably the best 'referred' ever!

Re: tires???
I stuck with the 13" rims, and use 185/80/R13. I really like them.

Those are getting rare and pricy, but great for off road. Not great for street handling.Logbear wrote:I stuck with the 13" rims, and use 185/80/R13. I really like them.

Re: tires???
yes those 13 ' are getting harder to find,few months ago , in WASHINGTON Seattle and other area Wal-mart use to sale biggest 13" are discountiue ,only 155/..R13 , so in Canada are still avaible WAL-MART have 175/80r13 while they last cost $39 each and Canadian tire (name of the store) still have 175 and 185/80R13 range from $42-50 each once they are gone , they're history so , when I heard about 13" fade away then I bought 4 tires to stock in my garage.
