Well this is a bit frustrating, I would have ordered these tires if I could  
have found someone to sell them to me. I called several shops in the Toronto  
area and went to some online stores no one mentioned the Falken tires even 
when  I asked about them and other "tuner style" tires. I do have some exposure 
to  import stuff as I have a Maxima that I have put several upgrades on. I 
bought  the Sumitomo HTR 200's from Tire Trends, good price yes, buy had a long 
chat  with them about the use of car and what type it was. Even asked what 
other 
tires  would work is this type of application.? Seems like if its out of the 
ordinary  they don't want to bother, mind you that sounds like the whole 
service industry  anymore. I'll call them this am and have a chat, but the 
HTR's 
are probably what  will be on the car I should have phoned the manufactors 
directly, the last set  of TOYO's I had on a different car thats what I had to 
do. 
Local dealers keep  saying the tire was either not in the book or did not 
exist. Just to lazy to use  their brains and think and look.   Oh well sorry 
for 
the mornings  rant....lol....cheers....and I'll do another post about the 
tonneau.....ps...a  positive one I think....phil
