tires
Bill, You may want to check with your local Igloo tire store. If you
get a set under a palm tree in Florida it would be good to have access to match brand and style replacements and or warranty with he same at home. Some tread designs capture gravel and throw the stones up and back over your toad, this would not be a consideration for those who keep it on the pavement. The gravel throwers would not even be evident to tire salesmen in city areas. Bruce is correct that 'steer set' implies 2 new tires and 'Drive set' implies 4 recaps. I would however buy a used tire to keep as a spare from a semi rig with a recent Mfg. date. Chances are the tires you plan to replace are just old and not worn. In place of a spare, I carry coffee and a cell phone. In the States there is a Federal excise tax on tires above the local sales tax. I wonder if you would be able to exempt this tax?? there is also a old tire disposal fee and you may want to request "Out the Door quotes" to give you a true comparative basis for shopping and travel budget. I look forward to hear about your trip. See if you can get Randy to fill the Tank, Tiger asked but later declined Randys efforts.
