No Goodyear?

["Jeffrey Warden" <jawarden@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

I received many responses from the list for different brands and ratings of
tires that would suit this car (see original message below).  Thanks!

Question though.  Not one response mentioned a Goodyear product.  Is there a
problem with goodyear tires?  I am curious because I have a brother-in-law
that can get me an employee discount if I wish.

Thanks again,

Jeff Warden
