I wish they made these in our size:

Too pricey for me to spend on my daily, but for the Midget . . . :)

Hello Robert,

       i'm no expert, but everything listed looks like this tire is
       for long lasting tread (read HARD COMPOUND).. that treadwear
       rating of 420 tells me that the tires will rot BEFORE you can
       wear them out.. (remember tires have a shelf life or sit life
       or no more than 7 years or so.).. you won't have worn even half
       the tread of in that much time since these tires on this car
       should last upward of 100,000 miles, even with spirited
       driving, which you wouldn't want to do too much of, because
       they're so freaking HARD.....
