Yay! It looks like falken is going to have some of their legendary inexpensive rubber in 195 50 R15, made especially for the 914 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif).

They're coming out with a LOT more sizes. The tread is a little lame, but we can only assume it will be as good or better then the previous generation.

Yeah, they stick like hell sitting in my driveway. The driving that I have done has worked fine. They don't turn slippery backwards. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol2.gif)

That's ok. The tread is temporary anyway. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
