[Spridgets] Fwd: Tyres

I bought some Falken Sincera SN 807 from  http://www.tires-easy.com about 6
months ago in 155-80-13s for my bugeye.  They were $38 each and & $7.50
shipping per tire.  They are made in Japan, supposedly by the same factory
that makes Dunlops.  They're round and black and seem to be working well so
far.  They have a vintage look to them that looks good.  I don't see them on
their website any more, but might be worth shooting an email to them.

I checked The Tire Rack's website last
week (again), looking for tires for
my Midget.  At this time, the only tire
they have in 155/80x13 is a Kumho.
While I've bought a LOT of Kumho tires over
the past 10 years, I'm done with
them since they are now manufactured in
China.  I refuse to buy ANYTHING
made in China if there are other options
available.  So, hopefully, by next
spring, there will be another option
available to us.

The Tire Rack has a lot of
tyre info on their web site. Here is the
explanation of sidewall markings.

WARNING - You
can spend hours reading their web site. Proceed at your own
risk, and maybe
after you leave work.

Hope this helps.
