Hey All,

When I first put my Agilis' on my 86 GL the first thing I noticed was
the very delicate steering attributes.  My first time over one of the
bridges in my area I thought I was gonna blow off.  But, since they've
been broken in (over 500 mi) they seem very sure.  One note, because of
the aggressive tread they do handle differently on grooved pavement and
bridge grates.  I would expect that with any tire with an M&S rating
when put on the front wheels.

We still haven't thawed out here, my alley is a sheet of ice and so are
the side streets, I can still go wherever I want to without getting
stuck.
