Subject:      new tires and alignment
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

after the right rear tire blew up (Michelin XZ., sidewall got busted), I am in need of new tires. I will get the Michelin Agilis 61, but the tire place is usually fast to "recommend" an alignment. The old tires look fairly evenly used. Is a new alignment necessary? If yes, is there something special about the alignment for a westy or is it a "norml" procedure which any place can do w/o destroying anything? BTW, Jenny is an '81 westy.

TIA Karl.
