I have preached to the non-believers for many years that Coker tires(and many of the others who pay to use the names or are made by the major manufacturers) are junk. Poor(read lousy) whitewalls, blowouts, tread separation, lousy warranty, radial pull, vibrations, out of round(have I left anything out?). If you have not yet experienced any of these, you will. Thankfully we had no incidents such as you experienced while traversing the narrow roads, extreme curves and 1000 foot drop offs while running our autos around the lake. Indeed I had expressed this concern of Coker's while riding as a backseat passenger with one of our members on one of our outings. You certainly had a rough trip home. Mine was uneventful except for the horrific traffic backups on highway 50. Lake Tahoe traffic, does make our Bay Area traffic look like the Bonneville Salt Flats. Thank you and all others who worked so hard to put on a fine show. I do not think that I have ever had 3 restaurant meal in succession that pleased me as much as those that I experienced on this trip. And even the Viking was great except for a crummy TV(and I was not suppose to be watching it anyway, so that made it easy). We all cannot hardly wait for your next presentation. And what a great bunch of guys and girls and cars!
