Re: Tire sies

Listen to George, Romeo.

 Too many people out there (usually trucker and SUV types) going to
oversize tires. They wonder and complain about premature brake wear,
poor handling, poor town fuel mileage, and loss of acceleration. The
aftermarket tire shops are pushing it real hard these days-they have
nothing to lose. I know they generally shoot for similar diameters, but
most consumers don't realize how much time, energy and money goes into
factory design. Audi's are not bitchen cars because someone thinks they
look better with bigger tires. They're hot right out of the box! That's
why George smoked 'em! George had 'em beat before the race ever
started....in the head. (Good job, George).
