Fulda tires?? Nope never heard of them
If you want really good American made tires that
are an excellent value in addition to being first
rate tires check out Kelly-Springfield tires. They
are not to well know but this company as been
around for a VERY long time.

Dan,
They are great tires. Had them on several cars. I spent 3 years in Fulda, just down the street from the factory. Lots of fast cars there were wearing them. I plan to get a set for the LS as soon as the Cooper LSEs wear out.

Had Fulda radials on my Porsche.
The more expensive Porsches wore Pirelli P7s. I had no real complaint with my Fuldas, however.
The one tire I won't buy is Michelin. Oh, excellent tires, I admit. But the painfully heavy-handed tv commercials they used to run, with the baby sitting in the tire, and the suggestion that if you don't buy Michelin, you're consigning your infant children to a fiery death, just annoyed the hell out of me. (Personally, I like tv commercials featuring silicone-enhanced models in bikinis, possibly cavorting on the beach with beer-drinking dogs.)

I ended up getting the Fulda tires. $298 total for 4 tires installed, out the door. Not bad, considering that my car uses 205 65HR 15 tires. The same size tire from Michelin in a "H" rated tire was about $150 apiece! Now that I have had the tires on my car for several days, and have run them in a couple rainstorms, I am very happy. They are a little noisier than the factory Dunlops, but nothing unbearable.
