265/50 14 radial TAs?

Greetings from Australia,

I have an E38 Chrysler charger - as a quick history these cars were produced by Chrysler Australia and the E38 and E49 were limited run homologated racing specials. Some 200 or each were produced and believe it or not, at the time of manufacture they were the fastest production cars in the world....with a 265 ci engine, built with all the good stuff and producing some 320 HP and 320 ft-lbs of torque....

Anyway, I digress :-). I need some new BFG 265/50 14 radial TAs and these tyres are simply unavailable now in Australia. Can anyone advise where they might be still for sale in the US? (just to be difficult I'd prefer the original raised white letter style rather than black silvertowns ....). If I can find some I'll get friends in the US to buy them and send them.

Thanks

RobK

For the tires, BFGoodrich doesn't even list them on their website, so I assume they are no longer available. I also could not find that size on tirerack.com

Agreed! It looks fast just sitting there!

I just bought a set of BFGoodrich Radial T/As for my boat trailer and had to order them. There were only a few 14" sizes available anymore, which is unfortunate as, in my opinion, a Radial T/A, will never go out of style!

They do make a 245/60R14 but that's 25.5" tall
About an inch taller than the 245/50

Check with Tire Rack, they ship to Australia
