As has been said, just search by size or by brand, I never use the vehicle info.

The problem is the seat to keyboard interface, not the website interface.

I can relate to the OP and the replies. I've gotten screwed when I put in make and model and had to reload the page to get just sizes. Learning the conversions though is a bit tedious

Fine, I get it. I'm mentally challanged. You've all had your fun. Now I wish I could just delete the thread.

I was simply wondering if anyone else has ever had the problem with the vehicle selector on tire related websites. I know next to nothing about tires, but am quickly learning. I'm sorry I expressed my ignorance.

I have a tire fetish myself
I bet you got the highest rate of requests for returns from these customers too.

I have a wheel and tire fetish also. I attribute it to the big wheel I drove/rode/pedaled countless hours many moons ago.
