Yes, I do mount my car tires on occasion. The post you refer to was instigated b/c of a problematic wheel barrow tire tho … lol … I’ve never had much trouble getting the bead to set on car tires. I prefer to buy tires at my local tire vendor so a better chance my neighbors remain employed, money stays in the area. I did try to buy some at Walmart.com a while ago, but the folks at the local Walmart where I asked for assistance in the transaction weren’t very helpful, in fact completely disinterested, so the local tire store got my business instead. Walmart.com didn’t offer Michelin’s in that size either, all they had listed were the Hankooks as I recall. The trie store guy was the one who implied that Michelin doesn’t make that size tire anymore.
I wonder if Coker makes them. They buy the old molds and reproduce obsolete tires to modern standards.
George, what you listed is not a proper tire size
70R13 is only partial
you might have 165/70R13, for example
There is no “70R13” size

I regard anything under 60-series to be low profile - but that’s just me, and I am biased toward 65-70-series as a happy medium between razor-edge steering response and straight-line stability.
Very few people share your wrong ideas and why keep dragging up old threads just to post the same things over and over?
