[Healeys] Non-DOT tires

[Al Fuller]

Ed: 

You and Rich are right about one of us putting non-DOT approved tires on our
car [in the US], and getting sued over resulting damages in the event of an
accident.

My comment is:  rightly so!!

Rich, whilst I concur with you 100%......

<<Of course these tires are expensive and you can expect a mileage life of
only about 18,000 miles, but these days most of us will out time the tire
life (7 years) before we out drive them. >>


Your best line is above [tho I stick with 6 years -:)] BUT [and
sorry], Rick's comment trumps yours !!! -:) !!

<< Speaking of liability, get in an accident with non DOT approved tires on
your car, a personal injury lawyer will be licking his chops. >>


GOSPEL, IMHO !!!!
