Ian...I appreciate it but if I am gonna burn some rubber, I might as well burn my own on my winter tires.

It doesn't snow much in Oklahoma anyway, eh? I will get back to you later after work though. Thanks!

Screw 93.

Actually...Gavin's Goodyears it looks are all-seaons. My Dunlops are performance. I probably shouldn't mix those treads.

Back to square one.

Oh, I know!! I can put my winter steels on again! heh...

Keith, are you willing to part out just one? Also, does do they still have tires on them?

Excellent. Now that you have been patient this long, break it in gently then head for the Mountains.

Yeah...1500 miles in 6 days shouldn't be a problem. Congrats from your MAMA.

I must have missed the fine print in the MINI warrenty that says Ian has the right to see my car before I do! Apparently he's at MOP now. You'd think people have to work (like me)?

j/k Ian. Get one last view of it before it goes into the shop!

Pure coincidence, nothing more
I could not figure how to remove the heat control panel so borrowed a few minutes of Garys time ...

By the way Steve, Martin says "make it 160"!

PS:
I did happen to have my camera with me
