For anyone who still uses 14" stock rims, better buy a fresh set now. We had a member on the Toronto forum post a topic where to buy 215/60 R14 tires. I started doing some online searching and from three of the best websites I know, all of them only listed the BF Goodrich T-A. Seems no one else is producing this size anymore. I tried searching 205/60 R14 and only hit I got was from discount tires for Falken 512's (which I thought where discontinued)
Sites I used were: 1010tires.com Tirerack.com Discounttires.com
------------------ Currently own: 87 GT 3400, 87 SE, 87 Coupe T-top Previously owned: 84 Sport Coupe, 2 85GT's, 87 Coupe (T-top donor) G.T. Fieros
Same problem in the US, only two tires being made in that size anymore, and both crap. Once I wear out my Indy 500's, I think I'll have to get a new set of wheels.

I believe that there will be 14" tires in the future. Companies like Universal Tire and Coker Tire still make runs for 100's of odd and unusual sizes. The only application for 14" tires is on classic vehicles. Fourteen inch tires are basically a crappy size tire to run and they don't look real good.

I still used original 14" rims on my Coronet SuperBee because I like how they look with taller period looking tires. I got them (Redlines) from Cokers.

So I bet there is no hope for us who run the 185/80/R13's

I've got a set of 225/60/14 BF Goodrich Radial T/A's on mine, loved them at first, but as time goes by, I am liking them less and less. Not hard to come by though, and reasonably cheap. ~85 a tire
