Tires make a difference!

"Wow!" says my daughter on the phone while driving from Farmington, NM to Taos. "I can't believe what a difference tires make. The car rides and handles so much better! This is great. I noticed it even just driving home from the tire place!"
She's in my '96 CSE semi-Aero that's she's had out there since June. It had my winter alloys on it, with a set of 205/60x15 Nokian WRs. They were down to about 4/32" when I left the beast with her in June but were down to the wear bars by November.
After some nagging from me, she just put a set of 205/60x15 Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS on the car. We'll swap them to her '95 CS when she comes home. These are the summer tires I usually run, but in the 16" W-rated flavor on Aero rims (she got the good car out there, not the nice rims!).
She learned something, and I can worry less, too.
