Long story short, I have dry rotted 185/70/13s and have been looking far and wide for a replacement of the same size. ONE Firestone has them for $80 apiece, otherwise Walmart has 175/70/13s for $40 as a somewhat acceptable match. Ebay is running about 60-70 shipped for 1.

 

There appear to be a lot of vehicles that use this size, so where do you lot acquire 185s?

les schwab should have them, I have gotten mine there.

 

You can do 175s or 185s or even 195s, you might see a very slight difference in your speedo cable.

My preference has been 185 70 for 4wd subarus with 3.9 gear. Sometimes the door sill is stapped with 165 tires in the vin plate.

 

As long as you can find them, go with who has them and the best price. I already ran into a no 185 tire in stock, or buying the last pair
