Re: [A/S] Michelin or Bridgestone (Decisions Decisions!)



Probably a wash, but after getting my sorry young tushie (sp?) shot at 
from Michelin rubber plantations, and not being able to shoot back, I 
have a decided aversion to buying their tires.

Oh, very yes!  I lost a tire last year on the way to the Region 2 Rally. 
 Would have known about 20 miles and some (fortunately minor) coach 
damage sooner .  I have seen some trailers flat beat up
like a chat with a bad friend by blown tires.  Mine picked up a low tire 
within 100 feet of departure one time.  Let me know to get to a service 
station for air, instead of a dealer for another new
tire.  I love it, and wouldn't leave home without it.
