Tire science and more...

Thank you Bob and Tony, for the quick response. I am very willing to buy a fifth wheel to match the four new ones but hesitated because I and the installer didn't think it would fit in the well. If it would, then I will order another wheel and tire. 

BTW, I am ecstatic over the new setup. I cannot believe how much better the car drives. It's true I've only gone about ten miles but to me, even in that short time, the difference is amazing. I have Michelin Exaltos on and so far they are very quiet. That's what I was looking for so I am pleased. Since I don't do that "spirited" driving that you guys love, I am happy with quiet and smooth. I also think I'm going to just keep these tires as all seasons. I'm too old to be dragging summer or winter wheels out of the garage :-)

On my way home I stopped at an audio place my Godson (Lexus tech) recommended. I am happy to report that I've run into lots of service people with whom I am impressed lately  - this guy was exception. The aftermarket receiver in the car 'receives' one station. He's gonna take care of that. Didn't try to sell me a new one and he will order me a new antenna that unscrews since the one I have is somehow permanent. Anyway it feels good to be moving forward with the new baby. 

That's all the news that's fit to print.
