we were running Sumitomo HTR200. Well sumitomo dropped this tire and doesn't offer any 60 series 13" tires.

ANYONE have a spec DOT tire for asphalt. We need to have 13 and 14" sizes to accomidate everyone. We all shave our tires. Like to find something comparable to the HTR200's in cost, durability and traction. I gotta say that this was a great tire. really sucks that they are discontinued.

cooper doesn't make the cobras in 13" since 2008. Fuzion doesn't make 13"

Federal are from Taiwan. I found a lot of Fed tires and on their web, they list 13" and that's what the legends are running. But I can't find any tire store that sells 13" except from Legends organization which is over $100 each with shipping.

Federals are manufactured for Les Schwab...so id start there...the ones we ran were the Super Steel 635 and were available in 185/60/13 as well as 205/60/13 and 185/60/14 and 195/60/14 and were $45 ea. last time i bought them.
