I am in fact George Washington. Not only am I pro-gun control but I hate that English king too. As for tires, I don't any as I go by ferry. << Costco's Kirkland brand, load rating C works OK for me but I'm sure their not the best.

What the heck I got Pirelli speed rated car tires on my 87 GL. Then I have some Uniroyal MonoPly load rated tires on my 16" Syncro. Came from Europe that way. The 82 GL has some Kirkland tires on there. Generally no complaints. Except that I did shred one very expensive Pirelli possibly due to excessive weight for that type of tire, excessive cornering speeds, brake fluid dripping on that tire all year round due to a leaky wheel cylinder or all of the above.
