I've used these guys several times -- always quick delivery of fresh tires:

They have many in 165/80 15:

Many sources sell Vredesteins -- other brands come and go but Vredesteins always seem to be there and highly regarded.

Frank IMHO the 185/65 15 Yoko is the best choice for the 3/ early 4 the lower aspect lets you use the wider tire without body rub yet retains the circumference of the pitiful original bias tire. If you have wire wheels, Make sure that you find all the inspection tags on the inside of the new tire.The tube will eventually chaff and leak if you dont.

Affordable Tire and Break (503-235-1818) in Portland, set of 4 Fuzion 185/65 15 Tires for $299.96 They also suggested Nankang's. They have the best prices in the Portland area.
Will the 185/65 15 work on both the original steel wheels, and 60 + wire wheels. Currently have the original steel wheels and thinking of buying wire ones in a year or two.
What are best size wire wheels to get? Moss's website recomends their heavy duty 15" x 4.5", 60 spoke (item #454-630), but have been told the more spokes the better and the 15" x 5", 72 spoke (item #454-660) also work. Is this true?

I have been very satisfied with the Vredestein 165 R 15 Sprint tires I bought 26,000 miles ago in August 2004. They really grip well. I think I still have about 50% of the tread left. See photo taken a few months ago.
