Hello,

We have also recommended the Vredesteins to our customers, but no one has used them.

Mostly because of the cost, but coming in a close second is there are no Vredestein dealers that have them in stock anywhere near us and shipping adds even more money into the equation.

One small local tire chain claims to be a dealer, but when pressed to order them, they can not give a firm date of arrival.

So most of our customers are using Kumho 185/65/15, but there are several other high quality manufacturers like Goodyear and Bridgestone that make a 185/65/15.

Pirelli does make a 175/65/15, but one is a snow tire and the other, a P3000E, has very poor specs.

And I have heard the Pirelli P3000Es in actual use, did not perform very well.
