For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Did you always run it with white/blackwalls or were those snow tires on the back? Which brings me to another car story. I was driving my daughter up to Connecticut College in New London and it was a day much like the ones we've had for the last week or so. I had borrowed a station wagon from a neighbor and paid him for the use of it for the roundtrip. On the way there, the back end was really squirrelly as I came around curves on the CT Tpke, it seemed to want to continue around when I wanted to straighten out. I figured that after I unloaded, it would be better on the way back. It was much worse. When I got home, after delivering a load of thanks to the heavens for a safe arrival, I delivered the car back to my neighbor and warned him to get it checked. He was insulted and closed the door in my face. He loved that station wagon. A couple of days later, he drove by and pulled up to the curb (he wasn't big on exercise). "I just had it checked. The guy said I was running radial snow tires on the back and regular tires on the front and that might have been the problem." Ya Think !!! |
