Does anyone know of a manufacturer who still produces whitewalls in 235-70-15? My local distributor tells me that Goodyear still produce the RSA for police use but only as a blackwall.He also states that the Avon turbosteel is no longer avaliable.
Thanks Dave

They advertise BF Goodrich in that size with wide white walls. There are others with thin white walls.

Just make sure that they are rated at 101H or higher for legality and safety. 102V is OK, as are 106V, the standard recommended by Crewe.

David,
I just purchased a set of 225/75/15 white wall Maxxis for LRH 8376 but am yet to fit them to the car so can't give a road test report just yet. Anyway I paid $195 each fitted, my friend owns the local tyre shop where I live in West Aust. I don't believe they make a 235/70/15, but definitely a 235/75/15

Goodyear Eagle 235/70 R 15 103V are available with whitewall, I am using them on my Shadow as well as on the TurboRL.
