Last time I got tires for the TT, I ordered them online from Discount Tire and had them drop shipped directly to R&M's shop. He mounted and balanced them for me. Good luck.

Coker is a good source for 135s, and they are a local option.  Best deal on the 145/65s is tire rack when i got them.  It depends on what you are running them on, though as to which is the better choice.  145/65s work much better on early, link pin cars while the 135s have a lot less tread touching the road, but they tend to work out better on ball jouint bugs.  are these for the RHD Super?

I'm running 135's that I got from Coker downtown, can't really get them for less than you can pick em up for there.  I suppose you could mail order some, but then your stuck waiting.  Tires are a hard thing to keep in stock, when you do have them no one needs any...then they just sit around getting old.  I don't know of another source for the 135-145 tires locally, getting pretty hard to find 165's now too. You can order and have them shipped directly to the shop like Russ did..I don't mind mounting and balancing for anyone. ;D
