RE: Tires

Hi Doug! It's interesting to hear about somebody else who has had trouble
with Michelins - I have had problems with tread seperation on at least one
tire in every set (of 4) that I have ever owned. Paul (my better half) says
Michelins are great tires and he thinks I just don't keep them properly
inflated - probably, since they lose air faster than any tire I've ever
used - one set of tires needed to have air added every week (everytime I
got gas, I checked the air pressure and every time, at least one tire was
low) - I'll take Goodyears every time, thank you.
Bev Stanley - in Eagle Rock (where it's still overcast and cool!)
