hi all 1. recently had both the lower engine mounts replaced on the car - no = more sliding motor - but now, when i brake hard i often feel a thunk = through the steering column and/or brake. repair shop couldn't suggest = a source when they test drove it (i haven't yet left it with them to = troubleshoot). they did tighten sub-frame bolts, but that wasn't it. any thoughts? 2. i'm really enjoying the car. did a 2000km trip a few weeks ago and = the li'l beast really rocked thro' the rockies. (BC canada) but i'm = expecting the tyres need replacing soon cause they gutter a lot on city = roads. any suggestions for replacement tyres? =20 abdallah 87 9000t - 230000km 87 9000s - 270000km
