Fierce brand tirres??? Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Mon, 12 Sep 2011 14:32:15 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I had a flat tire tody, my first in nealry 40 years of driving. I installed the spare then went the tire dealer closest to work, Goodyear, to have the 2/3 consumed Cooper CS4 repaired. They called 30 minutes later to say the tire was delaminating on the inside form being driven while going flat and would need to be replaced.
My options were told to me as a Goodyear that didn't match real well to the Cooper's tread design, or a less expensive Kelly that was a better match. I opted for two of the Kellys. My web search did not reveal any Kellys in my 225/50 VR16 size, odd.
Instead they installed two Fierce Instinct VR tires which apparently are made by Goodyear (from a web search tonight). Interestingly, they installed the new tires on the front, eventhough the flat was on the rear!
Anyone know anything about these tires? I guess they are Goodyear's inexpensive brand.
