Or they hope you'll realize its dumb, and you'll buy some 205/50/15 Kumho Ecsta XS for like $87 a pop, and have super sticky street tires.

Maybe it's the government. They like to tax people with odd tire sizes I hear. Could be aliens too.

165s are 6.5" wide. I think I had a mountain bike with wider tires than that.

Ugh, no. The only interest I have in tires is to destroy them in the most fun way possible.

thurman,

you wont find those locally, youll have to order them online and the only company i have seen when i was looking for them was federal. I highly doubt youll find them in the STATES in the tire you want.
