Exclamation Well,...

...it seems we are getting different stories on this. I had been trying to connect with Brandon for a while. He has been at the fall track days, so the shop is closed part of the week. It seems that the family business may be going through some changes. Perhaps some of the confusion is based on this.

In any event, I had a chance to catch up with Brandon this afternoon, and he said that his dad, Roger, had in fact ordered some of the Nankang CRV-6 radial tires in the following sizes:

185/70R15
215/60R15
245/60R15
295/50R15

Brandon said that they are about six weeks out, being made in Taiwan not Europe, and they are finalizing the pricing in the next week or two. No surprise on the country of origin... it is Nankang after all!


He acknowledged that he is aware of the issues with the high price of tires, and that he is going to connect with the new owner of the Avon/Nova brand about more availability and better pricing there, as well. Hopefully, that is great news all around!
