Re: Safety of old tires
Geez, SoCal! That's a new one on me. I hope the installer gets yelled at for that bonehead move. On tube tires I sneak my wife's vacuum out of the house to suck up any grit before the tube goes in. On my fiirst freeway trip in the woodie I got a flat after I reached my destination. Tire shop said it was abrasion from grit against the tube. But a block of wood?
