What's this?

"Not a big fan of those"

"They're expensive, and the old ones sucked when it came to performance. They've gotten significantly better, but are still too expensive.

Auto manufacturers like them because they don't have to add a spare in the trunk. " - Edgeman, June 5th, replying to an article about Michelins new airless tires.

Okay, the last line makes me think you didn't know that you were commenting on an article about these yesterday.

Here is a description of "Run Flat" tires from Bridgestone -- EDGEMAN 06/06/2019 09:42AM

I know the difference; I don't know why you reposted the same news after -- jmanatVT 06/06/2019 10:09AM

Actually that was my posts about "run flats," not these tires. -- EDGEMAN 06/06/2019 09:29AM

Yes, that was the last line of my post, saying that you probably didn't -- jmanatVT 06/06/2019 10:03AM

I guess you didn't bother to read the link. It's the same article, hence -- Brown Water 06/06/2019 09:49AM

My bad. Since these aren't "run flat" tires, missed the correlation. ** -- EDGEMAN 06/06/2019 10:09AM

They're a German company, right? ** -- Brown Water 06/06/2019 09:17AM

Well, not so fast, you old retread - -- PhotoHokieNC 06/06/2019 09:30AM
