Tires [S8 and other questions]

["Bruce Aukerman" <Bruce@mannlawfirm.com>]

The Cooper brand is inexpensive and will last
for a long time, too long imho:)

On the tires for the S8 question?  Just my view, but why not put some really nice rubber on that car?  You worked hard for the money to buy the car, enjoy it the way it should drive, not the way it does drive.

"All-season" is really a catchy misnomer thought up by marketing.  Really, it should be "no-season".  I have driven on many "all-season" tires and, frankly, I understand the purchase only due to cost and maybe for your mom's dodge.

With what you paid for the S8 [sweet ride], tire cost should not be a concern.   Use your rims for summer tires of the SP 8000 variety, buy steel rims with a good winter tire, Hakka's, etc.  The performance of both will shock you. Put you more in touch with the road, which, after all, is why you bought what you bought.  Right? :)
