Interesting tire brand I hadn't heard about before

[Philberto]

Saw these brand tires on a Tahoe today, thought I'd share... they do offer tires in the US, but never heard of them. Finnish apparently.

They look pretty nice, gonna try and look up some reviews on them.

ETA: apparently they're made by Cooper's factory... hmmmmm.

EATA: Thanks for the pic add James... gotta stop this drive-by posting, because I don't usually forget to add pics.

Looks like a nice tread design, i kinda like it.

Im looking but havnt found any reviews yet.

Looks like a nice tire. But it looks like it would be loud. Also I like the siping on the tread blocks. And there isnt much to the sidewalls.....and I know that is something that Roadie looks at very closely.

Nice they make them in my size! Ill have to add these to my list of other tires to keep in mind when it comes time for new ones.

But good news is, I got a motorcycle so this sumer i wont have to put so many miles on the TB, and save some serious coin on fuel.
