new tires

[low_delta]

I got four new tires. My wallet's much lighter, and the car corners much better. Seriously, I don't have to slow down for corners... unless I want to look first. But I still felt like putting my foot on the gas coming out of the turn, because that's what you do, even though I didn't slow down going in. So I very often found myself driving very fast today. Amazing what a new set of rubber will do for your gas mileage.

Good for you! I do feel invincible when I drive the new tires. Bring on the snow, man.

Ah, yes, I remember mda saying for several months, "Yes, there's a little shake when I drive, but I deal with it...." Little shake! I could barely control the thing. ANd mda had, like, this bubble on his tire. Like an explosion bubble. Yay that he went to the mechanic!

Tom does that with the Vette though the tires cost a ton more! I don't have that problem. LOL Must be a guy thing!

We're getting two new rear tires for the car today.
I'm hoping that'll stop that weird sound I'm hearing.
