Subject:      Re: Another replacement tire for EVers?

Is this the European made G64 tire? Or a differetnt Goodyear tire?

We liked the Goodyears. A lot. But pricey. I could run through 3 feet (1 meter for the measurement conversion impaired) with no real problems.

We're now running the Michelins in the "differnt size". WE've not had enough snow nor I enough use to compare.

But if this is a different tire...
