Anyone know the acceptable circular run out for 16" Tires

[TM]

Grant-
Nothing like what you describe is acceptable- out of round tires are
defective, pure and simple. The dealer is trying to make you keep these
defective tires.

The whole thing sounds a bit fishy about the "wrong size" and all. I'd
insist on full replacement and if they won't comply, complain to the
manufacturer of the tires, the regional/national office of the dealer
(if
it's a chain), the BBB, etc. They usually will make things right if you
complain enough. Sorry to hear about that.
