Finally new tires


My continuing saga of my tires came to an end today(at least for now). Our tax(stimulus) check came this week and it was off to Sears I went. I ended up getting a pair of Bridgestone HP50's. I also got an alignment which comes to find out was way off most of the specs. My salesperson was very helpful and courteous and I'd recommend him if your in the area and in need of tires. His name is Peter Paglia he works at the Sears Autocenter in Woonsocket,RI. I'll be looking him up when I replace my other two tires(or other work).

Well at least that part of the day went well. Later in the day I went to the local Autozone to get a set of wheel bearing hub's for my wife's Caravan. The first store only had one(should be replaced in two's) so they located two at another store. So I picked up those. When I got home I realized a big mistake. They were the wrong ones. She has 14" wheels and I picked up the hub for 15" and 16" wheels. Won't work. So now I'm kicking myself for not checking before hand. So off tomorrow morning to exchange them for the correct ones. Oh well.
