For those that are interested I was reading an article in this months Unique Cars magazine (Issue 317, p89)

BF Goodrich will soon have available 265/50R14 and 245/50R14 tyres

Looks like they realize there is market for Australian and some US muscle cars wishing to use this diameter and width :clap:

I rangthis place a few weeks ago and they were taking orders for 265/50/R14 TA's but want $350 each. I was told they want 20% up front as they had more orders than tyres coming in the shipment.
