Goodyear Radials

[Tucker]

Any updates from Goodyear regarding radials next year. I heard at the Runoffs that they had already developed and tested the 15 inchers but were waiting on the bean counters as to whether or not they would produce them and if so their cost.

Thanks,

Where and by whom were they tested? Like to know if they tested FWD.

Call Mike at Competition Tire West. He said he would stay close to Steve Petrescu to have updated information on the bean counters.

I'm really confused about the interest/ perceived loyalty to Goodyear?!

Isn't this the same company that porked 80% of you when they announced in the 11th hour that they would have no bias ply tires for the 2012 Runoffs? When it was essentially too late to formulate/test a plan B??

Companies with iffy business ethics and "bottom line only" business models don't earn my motorsports $ business. Hoosier Tire never did anything like that to me and I don't believe they ever will given it's a family business.

Fire away opposing opinions!
