Any Knowledgeable Tire People -Need Help w/ Size

[Zen Archery]

As the Title states I need help getting new wheel and tires. I am running on 15" rims. The actual tire size on my Tracker right now is 195/75/15. I went to Goodyear and they said they no longer make that tire size and I will need to upgrade to a 16+" Wheel/Rim? If I do that what wheel and tire combination can I go with if I get a larger wheel and tire. I would have asked the guy at Goodyear but I am not ready to purchase yet and he was trying to close shop.

I am thinking about going with an 18" wheel/rim. So help a man out. Thanks.

is the tracker lifted? if not i would stay with the 15" and go with a 205/7515 or 215/70/15

If you are wanting to go 18s, 235/50/18

Tire size will affect your gear ratio,Ive lifted several vehicles and gone as large as 44 inch tires.I put 33-12.50-15s on a toyota,you could not use 5th gear.Properly,I should have also changed my gear ratio.Talk to 4wheelparts.com,they know alot about what you want.

Not lifted at all. This is my gas efficient vehicle, I've got a jacked up truck with 38's. This is my gas saver and want to keep it as efficient as possible. Thanks..

I would stick with 15 cause the 18 are gunna be more even if the tire is the same size. Ihave 285 in 16s and the same tire in an 18 is almost 40 more per tire... What he is talkin about is the width, they dont make 75 in that small a tire anymore. But there are plenty of 60 and 65 size tires. Do a search at discount or anywhere else for 195/60/r15 or 195/65/r15 and there should be plenty to choose from. Its dang near the same just a hair wider.

Oh and I am no tire guru but do know enough from my own research for my own truck... goodluck, and if your not very picky you might check craigslist. Ive bought many a tires on there.

I think they are just trying to sell you some new wheels. Go to Discount Tires and they will get you some 15s that will work just fine if they can't get you exactly the same size.

BTW, did you ever find those broadheads I paid you for a while back???
