Default 7.00-16 Tire Sources?

Looking for options for 7.00-16 NDCC tires for my M38A1.
Seems like a lot of tire supply for mvs has dried up, I can always go Stateside but would rather get something here in Ontario.
Seeking 5 tires.

Default Hey Chris

Buy that M38A1 I've got. There's 5 new rims and tires on it.

Go to the US. You can get the tires off Ebay for $104 each, and get them shipped to the border. If you can find a tire dealer on the US side that sells STA brand, get them brought up that way...same price. Or if you know someone going to the MVCC convention this summer, get them to pick them up from Wallace Wade. His prices are just as good, and he always has extra stock at the convention.

I believe there is a distributor in Montreal that brings in STA tires, but at 3 times the list price.

Summit Racing also sells Coker "Firestone" 7.00x16" NDCCs. These are what I put on my M151A2. I took Robs advice and had mine shipped to the Border and picked them up. 4 were a little over $550 including shipping. Can't beat that really.

When you say "shipped to the border", what are you using as a ship to address? I thought I heard of one guy using an UPS store for this in Niagara Falls or Buffalo USA.
