If you are on the fence about buying a set of tires, you probably need to do it soon. Many tire manufacturers are raising the price on their consumer tires within the next 30 days. Some of them already have. Reason: the horrible weather in Asia has caused a shortage of rubber. The price of natural rubber has increased 65% in the last year. Also increasing in price: rubber gloves and condoms. Time to stock up!!!!

Prices for goods are always artificially inflated now. Fu*k this economy.
I thought most tires use synthetic plasticized rubber now...
