The Ecopia 100 only shows 3 15" and 17" sizes on tirerack. The 400 series has a lot of sizes to offer. I overlooked Bridgestone since I assumed they were made in Japan, which I try not to support shipping stuff overseas if I can help it, but TR says "US" so I might try them.

Any objections to 195 55 16 (19 lbs and 24.5 dia) over 205 60 16 (21 lbs and 24.9 dia) saving 2 lbs but slightly shortening my top speed?

Thanks!
