    So now I was considering

    Kelly Tires: Edge Touring A/S. They seem good... the claim better on mpg...

    Looking for good or bad comments.

    Good marketing! If a tire lasts 65,000 miles under warranty, that's great!
    Are there many sellers of these tires in your area?
    Sometimes it is very difficult to find a similar replacement when one tire is damaged and you have to change the entire set.

    I do not understand.... Back in the 80's I used them on my Jeep and they blew the goodyear wranglers away. They were absolutely awesome... but a totally different tire.

    These are tires you can buy regularly. so I do not Understand the statement.

    replace the whole set if one goes? what? why would that be any different for these tires?

    Lasting... no tire really ever lasts the whole limit they claim...

    Marketing? do you mean my posting this post? Because I am asking honestly... I do not understand....

    how does this answer my question?

    Seems like a question, not a statement. Just verify their availability and move on, lol?

    No offense. Just practicality.
    Any tire is not insured against an accident, a nail on the road, rupture or damage.
    Some rare tires may only be sold in one store.
    It is difficult to find just one tire to install instead of a broken one. And you have to buy a new set of 4 wheels again.
