How do we get a company to make good tires for a Cobra?

I don't understand the problem we are wringing our hands over here. There are perfectly good Avons immediately available and they are a high quality solution to the tire problem.

If you don't like the Avon pricing then go upscale in the rims and tires department until you find an approximation of the look price and performance you are looking for. Chances are you will spend the same amount of money ...

If the complaint is price and that's what it sounds like, then you have picked a hobby and a hobby car that you are progressively unable to financially support. If that is the case, then it's time to look for a more affordable toy.

It has NOTHING to do with what I or anyone else on this site can afford. Your statement on that drips with ignorant arrogance. The fact is that this Cobra community is the only car owners group that buys the Avon because in reality it's a marginal tire that just happens to be the best of a very bad group and for what it is it's insanely overpriced. It has nothing to do with whatever anyone on here can afford. It's about not overpaying for marginal performance and trying to get better performance at a price commensurate with that improved performance level. Nothing more and nothing less.
