I swear, Charlotte almost needs a sub forum of her very own. I'll have to talk to her and see if she would like to become a sponsor :P
I finally bought her front tires today. I'd planned to do it a week or two ago but every time I drove past the tire place he had customers and I'm bad at waiting in line. Today there was nobody there when I drove in.
OMG, what a difference!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought that her ride was fine except for on one stretch of road where I felt a vibration that concerned me. It was just on that one short stretch so I blamed it on the road. After the new tires the drive home was totally better. She was so smooth. I took my hands off the wheel and she stayed straight. I looked at my speedo where the speed limit is 55 and I sometimes go 60. I was going 70 mph! Dang! When I got to the problematic stretch of road I could only feel a slight vibration in the seat of my pants rather that all over.
The gentleman said that in another few months I should replace her rear tires. I will do it. God knows I can change a flat, but doing it is a huge PITA that I would rather not deal with.
That's good news....having a front flat can yank the wheel almost out of your hands...it's a dangerous moment...glad you got the new skins |^|
