Yes, again. I have been searching availability of Vredestine tires. =
They have been the last two sets on my car. The first set was replaced =
due to age, not lack of tread. When I purchased the current set, one =
was bad (pulled the car right or left depending which side it was =
mounted on) and had to be exchanged. There was no problem getting the =
replacement tire. Now, after six years, one of them developed a large =
blister in the sidewall. I am reluctant to use Vredestein again as it =
would appear that the quality may be declining. An e-mail on The List a =
few years ago indicated that ownership has gone from the Netherlands to =
Russia to India even though manufacture may still be in the Netherlands. =
My research shows that Vredestines are getting harder to find and the =
price has gone up considerably in six years.=20
Two tires have been suggested as possible alternatives. I would =
appreciate any comments, pro or con, on the the following tires:
Hankook 175/65R-15 H426=20
Toyo 175/65R-15 84H Ultra Z-900 all season BW
