[diesel_mercedes] Re : New Tires

 


I'm fairly well pleased with the Michelin's I bought @ COSTCO , they stick like glue at speed (ahem) .

They seem to be wearing perhaps a bit faster than I expected but the car rides great and is very difficult to break loose , this means they're _SAFER_ and thereby good Dollar Value .

I'm sure Tom will say some foolishness about ' slow down ! ' , feel free to ignore it , I certainly do .

Besides : they're _not_ " free " ~ they're part of the paid service , unlike Directory Assistance ~ they _charge_ for that .

Well, here we go again. Time to buy some new tires for Mary (will do Martha in the fall).

But, between last time and this time, I have a new friend. A guy who owned a Tire Pro franchise and still has some privileges. Going to order a set of four this morning, and will let you all know how things turn out.

Mary travels the freeways at 60-85 mph, and Martha is the around town wifes car, so chances are I'll put different tires on each car.
