Story of my life chasing out of rounds tires, chased out round Primewells on the RV's and costed way too much. Bridgestones fixed that! Now on to the Festiva. Upgraded to 13's since 12's used to be hard to find, really should of kept those rims now that 12's can be found. 165/65/13 matches the stock 12 inch size. No good brand name's available in that size, Kumho used to be but not seeing them now. Have Forceum Trideka's on now, put it up on jack stands and you without a doubt see the skip. Thinking Linglong's but I've heard a few bad things about those. Information is minimal on most of these. Which brand would you chose? Funny the cheap 12 inch Walmart tires never had a issue way back.

Just pick one :D

Hankook actually does make a tire in that size 165/65-13, but it is out-of-stock and also a summer tire :sneaky:

I don't know who makes these or where they are made, but they popped up on sale big time.

I was looking for a name brand but that doesn't always buy you quality (had low end GOODYEAR ages ago and they were terrible)

I would try them. Honestly this might still be a common size in Thailand or Indonesia - they generally have much smaller vehicles?

Same manufacturer as the current out off round Forceum's but might be worth a shot.

Why not look for some 155/70/13 tires?

I hear you. the Rocky Mountain region scca stipulates 205/60R13 on the spec 7 class. A few years ago there were several rim manufacturers that had 13" Rims. Apparently other than SSR which are very expensive and a manufacturer that specializes in dirt track wheels 13 and 14" rims have almost gone extinct.
