Subject:Dare I start a Tire thread? 15" Tires for Westy
From:Melissa Mourkas <westywoman@MAC.COM>
Date:Fri, 28 Aug 2009 14:55:34 -0700

It turns out that the 15" Michelin HydroEdge tires on my recently
purchased '84 Westy have sidewall cracking to the degree that the
nice lady at Big O Tires refused to service one of them that is
leaking air.  Very conscientious of her.  Or risk-averse.  Or she
wants to sell me tires on a Friday afternoon.

Anyway, I am going to have to replace them, methinks.  Since I have
not followed a recent tire thread, I thought I'd hang myself out to
dry (at least it's Fryday!).

Wheel Size: 15" GoWesty alloy wheels, currently loaded with Michelin
HydroEdge 215 65 R 15.  (Still sold by GoWesty).

Suggestions appreciated!
