I just got a brand new one, size 195/65/15. It's too soon to tell if the long drive yesterday was good or terrible. When the tire fitters finally got it on the car, I was perplexed to see that the tread pattern and the arrows on the side of the tire pointed in opposing directions. After placing it on the tread but having my doubts, I returned home to research the product online and discovered that I was the only one with the erroneous arrows. Now I'm wondering what would happen if I drank a fake. Very peculiar, however do check the correspondence before making a purchase.
