Milestar & New WW Tires options
I am looking to get a set of new WW for my 65. Not many choices out there these days. Dimondbacks are one but pretty pricy for a set at $1200. Anybody try Milestar touring 775's??? Any other choices that I missed??? Thanks

I have over 10K miles on a set of Hankook H724 Optimo radials P205-75R15. Great tires, ride good, handle good, and just starting to wear. Approximate 11/16" wide whitewall.
Should have tried the P215-70R15, but was afraid of clearance problems. By the way, cheap too.

Yes, I have read many posts about Tiger paws whitewalls discoloring also. Dimondbacks have the whitewall applied after the tire is made (thus you can get any size whitewall you want) so they don't have the leaching problem but they charge a big $$$ premium for them...

Yes, as I understand it, Hankook has discontinued the 205-75x 15 WSW tires. However, some of the online tire sellers are still offering them. I just picked up 4 from Priorty Tire. Google it, you can find several sources
