Was headed uphill into the sunset and ran over something and destroyed the sidewall of my Michelin. Good thing I got road hazzard and that it didn't destroy my 13" wheel.

Yeah, but it's a different tread pattern. I got these for I think $58/ea which Kumho 155/80-12 were $52/ea so 80k tire vs a 40k (which I have yet to get out of a Kumho even with alignment and balancing) was a no brainer. The new tires are $85/ea? But right now I'm scrambling to find my paperwork. Its not in my glovebox.1963 Fairlane - future NSS drag car

Went to Sams yesterday with no paperwork. They couldn't pull me up either. They no longer carry the tire and said they couldn't get it. But the manager wasn't there. He took my name and number and called me and said he found a Definity tire (90k tire) as they don't make the X radial anymore. Said they'd make the adjustment but I think it will be negligible.1963 Fairlane - future NSS drag car
