[Tigers] Blow out

Dave,

I purchased a set of Michelin X steel belt radial tires (185-70 R13) at 
Costco.  I believe these are specially made by Michelin for Costco. 

It is a fine road tire, and grips well.  Some experience on wet streets, 
and none on snow/ice. I am positive that modern designs are better 
performers, but they do not come in 13" sizes.

Here's some nice wheel pics, including mine with the Michelin's.
