[Chrysler300] The COKER REPORT and some opinion thrown in for free

[JettLarry@xxxxxxx]

Several have asked for the details of the tires destroyed  on the way  home 
from Tahoe.  As is often the case, things end up being older than we  think 
they are.  I bought these tires in October 1997 from Coker.  I  would have 
thought maybe 2001.  They have maybe 3 thousand miles on  them.  They are 
P225/75/R14 sized and are M+S with the following  words:  tread plies:  2 polyester and 
2 steel belts.   sidewall plies:  2 polyester.
I suspect that Coker will side step the issue because of age so will listen  
to Roger Shaaf's opinion and find some newer tech tires.  As to the racing  
wheel option mentioned yesterday at Stockton Wheel, I will be ordering them for  
the F.  It is driven spiritingly if irregularly and the memory of George  
Laurie changing lanes very quickly at blowout time last week plus my memory of  
the OEM wheel splitting on the inside from metal fatigue a few years ago (the  
next day after some 125 mph driving) makes the expenditure for new tires and  
wheels easier to explain to the transportation committee at Jett Ranch.   
Thanks to one and all for the kind words of the Tahoe Meet.  The cars are  very 
important, but had this been the congregation of Pez Dispenser Lovers  of 
America, it would have nearly as nice because of the  participants!  Hummm, perhaps 
I should package club conventions at Tahoe  and do it full time.
