This is true. In my case though I already have a set of 14's that I really like that should be good for two more winters. 2 years from now, it might be a different picture, as the oversized rims craze crowds out the 14s and probably the 15s too.
Yokohama still makes 13" ig52c winter tires, so I think you'll be good with 14" until the car dies.
Wow, that's a surprise. The last car I owned that took 13" was a 1992 Toyota Tercel. By about 1995, the pickings were getting slim in its size, 145/80/13.
Wow, I didn't know 145/80R13's existed? Must've been very good in the snow. I had 155/80R13's on a 92 Sentra and then on a 95 Neon, and they were excellent in the snow.
