THANKS Luke,
I have a set of them on my car, and they have more than 1/2 tread left, but I have a vibration at 72mph+ ,they have been balanced.
SO,i think they better come off, I just don't trust tires that could be more than 6yrs old. I wish I could order a new set from tire rack,but I have a set of general XP2000 with about 1500 miles on them. I'm going to put them back on and get to hear everyone at the cruise ins this summer asking me if they are directional and are they on the wrong side. I guess i would rather be safe with newer tires.
THANKS AGAIN
scott
