I saw car tires on about a third of the Westies my son and I looked at. Some
folks bought larger wheels just so they could have more cheap car tire
options!  It's a huge liability for a tire store to sell the wrong tire.
The one my son bought had 14" car tires, and I used that (among other
things) to get the price down a bit.

(not sure how I replied to the wrong post, so copying here again)

Looks like a nice one, too bad about the under-rated tires that a non -
tire-engineer sells as 'safe' when they are in fact not for the application.
If anyone in the east wants to buy it I am looking for a vehicle to drive
east (to MD) in the next week or so.
