Ironman tires?

IIRC, they are like the "value line" of the Hercules "value line" of Cooper... now part of Goodyear.


This has become a theme in the last couple of years with used car dealers. They used to put Michelin or other tier one tires on upmarket marques and tier two on most of the rest now I see Mercedes, BMW and Lexus getting names I have never heard of. I would rather them leave the old tires on, drop the price by $300 (what they pay for the crap) and let me put on a real set of tires.

I see it on Bring-a-Trailer on some pretty nice cars as well. You have nice car then put some way off-brand Chinabombs on it?
