if i was gonna buy i'd get from vulcantire.com,
USD47/tire for RT215 in 195/60/14
USD80/tire for RT615 in 195/60/14
the main question i really want a straight answer to is.. why the hell are the RT615 almost DOUBLE the price of the old tire for that size.. and what am i getting for the money?
the 205/50/15 size, the price jump is not as drastic.. something like 80usd/tire to 96/usd tire
so i'm thinking.. falken realized that the RT215 in 14" was stoopid cheap.. and they decided to reprice the RT615 to boost up their margins.. if that is the case.. i am snapping up some RT215s before the supply dries up completely..
but if the RT615 is actually that much better against standing water.. i think i would pick em up just to have a bit more margin of safety in the wet
