    Dolores Emergency Tire Replacement plus Alignment

    We were out of town and noticed one of our Ecoslaves had a bubble on the sidewall before leaving I checked the car and tires thoroughly the bubble was not present. Obviously being hundreds of miles away from home I wanted to replace the tire obviously everyone on the Mirage Forum knows we do not many choices so we replaced all with Cooper 175 65 r 14. 65,000 wear I think we did good considering the circumstance $61 per tire and the 4th was free. The alignment was a surprise rear was perfect front was a tiny bit off but within the general spec. The car has around 20,500 miles. I was able to drive the car with the new coopers and I feel it rides better you can feel the difference at ramps. It also feels good knowing there's 11/32's of tread instead of the 9/32 with the ecoslaves.

    Although it's only been a few days no mpg difference.
