Thanks Dennis for the hot tire tip! Being locked into 14" rims for a little longer, I just purchased a set of 4, total (w/tax) $258.36.... originally $95 a tire! A lot cheaper than $500 I've seen for Michelin LXT's. Plus, 60K treadwear on the Duelers! Will post my experience with them once I put some miles on. Thanx again, this list rOCKS!!! Hieu 1984 Westy "MJ" no, nOT Michael Jordan...
