Hi Jim,
I think that is a great idea. As they say, "I was beginning to think
you'd never ask" :-)
I'm near Binghamton NY at the intersection of RT 81 (N-S) and the NY/PA
border (E-W).
Fortson Georgia is a long drive.
Anybody closer want to help me out? If I don't get those nasty Michelin
Red Lines, I think I'd go for 205/70 15.
It's been so long, I'm not sure I have even remember how my TR250 felt,
let along the Michelins. :-)
