[urq] New tires!

[Bill Bennett]

Umm, Tony 215/50/15 was never an OE size tire for an URQ in 1983, and to
keep both sides smilin' check out http://www.jibjab.com/ just for a snicker.
and your new tires? good price! do they handle well? road noise? yes I am
really curious since I am running Potenzas 205/60/15 on 7" wheels that seem
to work well in terms of noise and street handling, Bill
