Sorry it took a while to see your response.
The Falken Sincera's are only available in the UK. I tried America's Tire in California to see if they could order it.
No Luck! The choice of the Falken was based on: http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre-Size/ ... -Tyres.htm
Could describe your experiences with this specific Falken Sincera SN 832 Ecorun compared to other tires you've used and what size?
Also, can anyone be very specific why the XAS is better and how different in scale how it handles and feels compared to specific modeled tires. I have read Dougal's articles, just need other confirmations of other tires.
Again please state the specific tire model vs other tires you/others have used and how they compare...handling, grip, comfort etc.
One more note, California decided on April 1,2019 to charge state sales tax on internet sales
Another comment, The Cheapo Achilles 122 has a 165/70-13 H rated size, would this handle better than the 155/80-13 T rated tire?
The picture of the 155 looks like a cheap skinny economy tire, whereas other pics on the net look modern and have a nice profile!
Anyone have a picture of the Achilles 165/70-13 HR and how it handles?
