Default 295/50R15's...

I just bought two 295/50R15 Goodyear Eagle GTII tires from TireRack. Their website initially told me they were out of stock at all five of their warehouses and would not be restocked until 12/18/2007, with home delivery about two days after that. I was placing my order to get on the waiting list, when Lo and Behold, their Maryland warehouse indicated they had them in stock. They must have performed a physical inventory and came across at least two 295's in stock. I received my 255/60/R15 fronts last night since they came from their Shreveport, LA, warehouse. I expect my 295 rears tonight...


PS...But, I'm with others who want someone - ANYONE - to produce a performance tire in our sizes...similar to the Goodyear Billboards...but in a radial...and preferably with the same technology used to make the white letters on their GTII tires. While I like the looks of the Billboards...the poor quality lettering is a sticking point for me. I know, it looks authentic and all that. But, it's just too high maintenance for my tastes...
