I wonder what sort of legal issues and insurance denials he could be in for
if there was an accident and the powers involved discovered the origin of
those tires?
I too have the Nexen/Capital tire and they're doing just fine.
Cya,
Robert

It is interesting that Michelin is still making them for foreign
markets... I wonder if they are as overpriced in Mexico as they were in
Canada. Last year I bought a set of Nexen's for half of what the Agilis
sell for, and they are performing much better for me than the Agilis ever
did.<<<<<<<<<<
