3.00 x 16 tires. What are you using?

Post by onchiman » Mon Dec 21, 2009 12:14 pm

Restoring a CA95 and can't seem to locate a good street tire in size 3.00X16. Found some dirt and trials tires but no luck with plain street treads. There are quite a few 3.25 X 16 tires available and I may wind up going with that size. What are you all running on your CA95's?

I went with these (front and rear) in the 3.25x16 but they also have them in the 3.00x16.
Until someone makes some skinny whitewalls in this size I will stick with them.
Look a little like the old Dunlop K70's I used to use at the time, and the price is right.

The 3.25x16's on my Dream say 3.25-16 55P, 4ply
I believe the 55 indicates 481# capacity and the "P" indicates 94 MPH, according to charts I looked up.

Ok, I've been searching for an hour+ now; where on earth am I supposed to buy these tires? Every site I checked is either dead link city or out of stock.
