MG MGA - Kumho Power Star 758 tires available

Finding any 165R80-15 tires these days is a bit of a chore, but sometimes one gets lucky. An internet search turned up this link to some unlabeled tires from JCWhitney; http://www.jcwhitney.com/replacement-radial-tires/p2017661.jcwx?filterid=c3836j5 . Looking closely at the picture and reading the reviews turned up the fact that these are Kumho Power Star 758 tires, made in China. Better yet the tires are on a buy 3 get one free offer. My total came to $264 with shipping. The down side is that JCWhitney must be closing out old stock as the tire date code is 3708 or October, 2008.

If the link does not work, the item number is 27795G or search for tires for a ’71 super beetle.

Cheers,

John
