Re: Tire reccomendation request.

["Christian Els" <tiAn@usiw.net>]

I agree that Ecsta 712's are fantastic tires, but they are not yet available
in 14" sizes, or many 15" sizes.

I have been pestering Kumho's corprate office and their leading retailer
(Tire Rack) about making these available. If you own a sporting car with 14"
wheels, I encourage you to do the same, as they are a great tire at any
price, and a downright bargain for what they do fetch.

If you want to chime in, send email here:
info@kumhotech.com
sales@tirerack.com

Or call:
1-800-HI-KUMHO
 888-541-1777 (Tire Rack)

Tell your Bimmer, Miata, heck even Civic buddies to do the same.

At the very least, I now have free stickers : )
