Fender damage? I'm sure the old guys among us will remember the case of
a Tiger owner returning from a show when his tire blew out. The wreck
was disastrous. His passenger spent the rest of her life in a nursing
home, I believe. Lawsuits ensued. 60 Minutes got involved. End result
of tens of millions of dollars of research and litigation resulted in a
ruling that said any tire over 5 years old is the owners risk. And that
risk can be great.

I'm one of those drivers that doesn't put more than
