Not sure if this is a serious problem but I'll send photos to a friend who knows engineers at Bowling Green. I'll be guided by what he finds out.
Just wanted to give people a heads up.  |
Here is a link to the February issue of Tech Link that has a good article [page 8] about UHP Summer only tires. You can also find a couple of articles on UHP tires in the Q&A section of the Tire Rack web site.I had my dealer put Michelin A/S 3 tires on before we took delivery back in December.
