Tips On Tires
by: Ali Moazami
Tire safety is very important. Here are some regular checks that you can perform on your tires to insure your safety:
Lumps or swelling. Any lumps or swelling that appears on the sidewall are signs of tire weakness. If not attended to, it can lead to tire blow out.
Irregular tread wear must be checked out immediately. One of the best ways to check your tread depth is to do a "Penny Test". Stick a penny into a tire groove by turning it upside down. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head, it's time to get new tires. You might want to check several tire grooves to determine whether one part of the tire is wearing faster than another. Inspect the sidewalls for any bulges, that indicate internal problems. Also, if you see any wires anywhere, it's not safe to drive, as the tire might explode at any moment.
Sidewall fractures.
Tires should be rotated every 6,000 miles.
Balance your tires regularly.

My Neighbor Got A New Car
by: Al Thomas
I don?t know what kind it is, but I saw it on TV running full speed along the shore (I don?t live near the shore) throwing up spray or maybe it was that one climbing up the steep mountain trail thru the mud, rocks and snow. Very exciting. (I don?t live near the mountains either.) WOW! Just what I need.
But there are a few obstacles.
It costs about $28,000. (That?s close to the average annual wage.) I have perfect credit and they?ll give it to me for no money down. All I have to do is make the monthly payments for the next 5 years of only $541. Maybe it won?t be that much because I?ll be trading in my car and I have it almost paid for it.
I can see me now headed for the beach or climbing that mountain in that shiny new car.
