Thread: Discount Tire of McKinney - "Thanks, Al"

  1. #1

    Default Discount Tire of McKinney - "Thanks, Al"

    Called in an order for 4 215/45-16 Azenises on Saturday. They called me just now to let me know they're in. And I was worried about getting them in time for S2k... Silly me.

    It's about time you broke down and bought some tires. Maybe you can sell your old ones to a 'drifter'! :P

    Only if they like ones that don't hold air... I brushed a rock off of one of the other ones and let the air out of it yesterday afternoon...

    Makes you wonder just how safe it is to use those tires on the street, doesn't it? :P

    Yeah... 2 flats from little bitty SHARP pieces of gravel along the well worn edges of the tires... How many licks to the center of a Falken Tootsie Roll Pop? One fewer than I took...

    I don't think any tire would be safe when they're worn down to the cords!
