BSCC- Tire

[Jim Bengiovanni]

Ray and members,

Will bring the rimless tire to Wednesday meeting.

FYI:  I just replaced the tires on my wife's  Carol's car even though they had plenty of tread left.  She drives very little and the tires on her 2001 Nissan were at least 7 years old as we took delivery in January of 2001. Only had 18K on them.

I'll have to check the manufacture date on her new "Generals".  I do know they were made is in the U.S.A. which I found hard to believe.

Best to everyone.

Till Wednesday,

Jim Bengiovanni

  Good morning Jim,

  Seeing that video, sparked a lot of member feedback.  If it wouldn't be too much trouble, by all means bring the tire along.  Actually all our spare tires are mounted 'upside-down' and seeing that the DOM info is on that side it should be fairly easy for most of us to see at least when our 'spare tires' were manufactured.  To retrieve that information on the rest of our tires, it would be much easier if the car was on a lift and you had a drop-light to read the DOM code for the inside side-wall of the tires.   It'll be interesting to see the various dates pop up on our supposedly 'safe tires' and when they actually were made.

  Thanks to Pete Cuipenski for the suggestion to bring a tire to the meeting and to you for bringing one in.  This whole topic should be very interesting to those members who do not partake in the bsc-list at corvair.org  as they aren't aware of this discussion.   

  See you tomorrow night.    Ray 'B'

    I have an unmounted 14" tire that I can bring to Wednesday's meeting if no one else is planning to bring one.

    Someone make a management decision and advise me one way or the other.
