No idea for an 'A' but cheap isnt always good. And from what I have read on other forums Fast may not be an option either.

You can have it fast, cheap or good--any two, but not all three.

sorry bout that- tried transferring what was on european classics website and it defibulated...............


these tires dont get "flat spots" from sitting- they are also 4 ply and e rated- they seem to be a better bang for the buck then any other of the "cheap" tires.
