Pick up a Durometer while you're at it -- it's the only way you'll know when these tires are shot.

Don't think you had showed up yet -- but on Saturday I was describing a weird "set" the car was taking in the turns... kind of porpoising... and Ron starts with his magic tricks --- next thing he's telling me the right front is hard... the other three were fine -- But I changed all of them. BINGO the porpoising was gone! The hard tire was losing traction - 'causing the weirdo dance the car was doing. WHO KNEW!

Ron knew dat's who knew... His durometer told him all he needed to know.

The Hoosiers are toast when they hit 56... even though they were fairly new and looked fine!
