[s-cars] snow tires

[Greg Johnson]

Too weird!!!!  I was headed to the tire shop first thing in the morning
(beat the crowd) to take my  205/55 R16 01 Hakkas off of my 16x7.5
Borbet Lichtmetallrader Cs, and mount them on my 8Jx16H2 ET40 UrS4 5
Spoke Wheels.  Lee's post just killed that idea.  Thanks for the heads up.
