Ok, doesn't sound like a major disaster then. I'm just going to be
using them for the winter snows anyway. I bought them with my
fingers crossed, but the price was right -- $100 for a set of 4
Borbet CFs with very minor curb rash. The tires that came with them
are really shot (belts showing in the shoulders), but I bet I'd be ok
going 10 MPH through some tight turns to double check for rubbage
before dropping $$ on mount&balance for my snows. I do like the new
word, Dave. :-)
