Preliminary report only
Ok, all tires are on. Side note: either my wheels are warping in their old age, or the Federals are not quite molded to exacting tolerances. Two of my wheels now carry twice the wheel weight mass compared to the old Sumis. At least they're mounted on the inside of the wheel and I can't see them.
The ride: I've got that new tire car ride again, more compliant and less noise. The roads have dried up from the rain we got overnight, so I didn't get a chance to do any spirited wet weather driving. The big test will come on Monday. For the locals out there, I take Grimes Canyon Road to work in the morning. I like to think of it as my private road course to work. We'll see how they perform...
