tires - where to find?

[tenglund]

Having a hard time finding new tires for my 2001 Coleman Westlake.  I am trying to replace the ST185/80D13 that are on now, but I'm hearing words like "I can't get that size".  So far I've checked two local tire shops, Camping World and Tractor Supply.  Only one guy on Ebay has them ($90 each, on gold rims), but I'd like a little more of a selection.  Any ideas would be appreciated.  

Thanks.

J C Whitney handles Duro tires in your size at a very good price. They usually ship free too.....They can be found on the net.....

Thanks Old Goat.  Just go off the phone with Whitney, they have to do a special search, takes two weeks, expensive... etc.  They mentioned that it's a hard size to find because it's a D load rating (for a larger pup).  Anyone with a Westlake or similar go to a bigger tire?  Thanks again.

Just a suggestion, don't know if they carry them.  I'd sure call Tirerack though.

This is strange...In the past five years I have ordered three sets of Duro ST 185/80 D13 tires from JC Whitney. They always had this size and others in stock and shipped them within 24 hrs after order..I bought my last set in December, 2006, they were ordered on a Tuesday and UPS delivered them the following Friday... I guess their system has changed....

Thanks Austinado.  Tirerack has that size but in the C load rating, I'll keep looking.

Strange indeed.  Maybe I got a bad rep on the phone, I sure couldn't find them on the website though.  Any way you could find the Whitney Item# from one of your prior purchases?  

That's a lot of tires Old Goat!  Nice work.  

Thanks again.

I also could not find any single 13" tire listings at JC Whitney either..only tire and rim assembly C 78 13ST D rating, #ZX489246U at $112.99 each and free shipping.Three to four weeks delivery... Apparently theres no more fast shipping..

Here's the info on the last set of Duro C78 13ST D  that I ordered from them on 12-04-07.
MFG Part # 35-50213-185 D
Whitney catalog #475980
$64.99 ea. $129.98 total and free shipping

Also, Tractor Supply in our town has 13ST D tires and will order them if not in stock.....

Hope this helps...

I called duro tires directly and they sent me to a rep who could tell me who sold their product in my state 866.788.2060.  Hope this helps!

These guys had them for $65 on the website, called to make sure they were in stock and dude says they're on sale for $46, plus $20 shipping = $114 for two... bonus.  

Thanks to everyone.

My Niagara has 'Loadstar/Kendra' tires (205/75D14), and I'm budgeting for replacement as I am seeing hairline cracks close to the rims.  To find a dealer for these tires, I called Kendra, and was given their distributor:  Americana tire & wheel - York, PA (717-793-9700) to contact for a list of retailers in my area.

I believe "Mr. Tire" is one retailer carrying ST tires, and the gentleman at Kendra mentioned Northern Tool as frequently carrying their brand.

Don't know if this info will help you.

GOOD CALL!!!

I've been ordering my Duro tires from the guys at Tires Unlimited for years. Last summer I had a "tire emergency" and needed a new set within 3 days before a big trip to Kentucky. They were out of stock on my particular model, so they got the tires I needed shipped directly from the Duro/USA distributor's warehouse direct!!

I had my new tires at my front door in only two days!!!

Always call the guys at Tires Unlimited first. They go out of their way to help you and NOBODY gives you a better deal.

I have to add, you might also try a Utility Trailer dealership.  My husband works at one and they order them from Redneck Trailer Supply (256) 386-0328.  They will ship to your door.
