I would love to hear some feedback form someone who knows a little more than i do about tires. I have Sumitoma HTR Z III on the rear but I am having a bugger of a time finding tires for the front that match. I can order through Tire Rack and drive to the states for install but I don't want to do that unless I have to. it will cost me more in the end since I will have to shop...it is genetic.

A local tire shop is ssuggesting the Wide Oval Indy 500 92W XL BW made by Firestone.

Does anyone know about this tire?

 

Tire rack does ship to Canada. Here is my reciept from 04/14/09 when I got my first set of rear tires shipped to my door. There is duty and brokerage charged to the bill so you will not be getting an additional bill in the mail later on.
