I've always gone by the theory that, in the long run, the cheapest tire
you can buy is the most expensive. Cheapo tires are cheapo tires, if
you wanna drive around on "made in taiwan" crap, thats your business. I
prefer to buy the good stuff & drive safely for a long time with no
broken belts or $hitty sidewalls or worn shoulders that you see on
bargain stuff. Plus it's your tires, for petes sake, why comprimise
here. Your wife & kids deserve the piece of mind & safety that comes
with a good set of rubber.
