Message	I don't see that price or the sizes you need inthere, but I didn't look very hard. here's the skinny: 1, the rain tires will last about 1 day on a dry course, guaranteed, so you are wasting your money anyway, 2, BFG discontinued the R1s because they simply arent competitive anymore with the Kumhos and the Hoosiers. You are better off spending a little more for the Kumhos and getting at least a full season out of them and being more competitive.
