Putting another one of my K-wagons on the street, and instead of just slapping a cheap set of 14s on there, I figured why not use some 16" lace wheels I have laying around? Problem? No 16" tires in a size comparable to the 185/70R14 that came on the car.

Something around 205/55R16, maybe a little smaller. Possible trade for my 16" truck tires if your tires are in similar condition.

I have some 225/50/16 Hankook Rs3s that have flat spots from when my abs unexpectedly failed at BeaveRun. I've also got a slightly older set of Michelin pilot something mx in the same size. I thought I had some 205/55/16 continental DW, but I don't think I kept them.
I'm willing to part with any of those for nearly free if you're willing to pick them up, and I can even mount and balance them.

Hmmm. Where are you located?
And where is Vigo right now to tell me if I can squeeze nearly 9" of tire under my K-Wag??

Dayton, OH.
I have no idea if they'll fit but I'm willing to try it if you make the hike down here.
205/50 16 is RT Neon size. Check your Mopar fanboi sites. Hot rod Cavalier too, I think.

Yeah, the fanbois aren't giving them up (I asked in those groups first before I realized I should post here). Most of them run their tires in a condition somewhat akin to how you find the cars, unfortunately. No luck at the JDM sites, either.
I'll look around to see if I am able to fit them, Cactus. If so, you'll probably be hearing from me.

Looks like the 225s won't work if I lower the T&C at all, which was in my plans. You haven't come across the Contis, have you?

Nope. They appear to be long gone.

No worries. I just ordered some tires on Amazon earlier today.
