Tires: Tires, dodge caravan, tire rack

Question
Barry,

We recently bought a 2009 Dodge Caravan and want to buy 2 new tires 225/65/16 but are finding that everywhere we go they are a special order.  If we changed all 4 to a new size that is more readily available we were wondering what size would be best to change to.

Thank you
Karen

Answer
Karen,

First I went to Tire Rack to check out tire availability.  They list 12 tires in that size - which isn't a lot - but only one of the 12 had low inventory.  So I suspect a bit more shopping around might be helpful.

Second, P215/70R16 is a good alternative, but Tire Rack also only lists 12 tires and 3 have limited availability.

Good Luck
