I need to borrow some shoes
 
No not these shoes http://img83.exs.cx/img83/6164/walksmil7bh.gif


I'm talking about these shoes http://img83.exs.cx/img83/9702/tireanim8gm.gif .
I need to borrow some wheels with properly balanced tires to try to determine whether the tires on my Fuchs are balanced or not.
I need them for a day or so, and I promise to drive through the worst DC potholes with themhttp://img173.exs.cx/img173/520/madhopa5nh.gif ;). Ideally it would be nice if I could get my hands on them today. Thanks.

I have an extra set. 17's though....

Parri, if you have the time just go to Paul at Radial. I buy all my tyres including Durango (Toyos). He will balance the tyres on the car and shave any high parts off.loose a bit of rubber, but the tyre is only as good as the lowest tread part is anyway.

Thanks Dirk, I am planning on going to Paul at Radial next week. I go to him for all my tire needs. I just wanted to be 100% sure it the tires are causing the problem before I start looking at other factors.

Chris, how wide are the 17"s?

I have several sets you can use. PM if still interested. You can use my compressor but will have to change them yourself unlike a recent experience I had :roll:

205s on 7s & 225 on 7s or 225s on 7s & 245s on 8s (all 16s)

If you want, I can't be any closer.
I have my 6&7's you can try on for size!
I'll be home at about 7:30 tonight after soccer practice.
Although the wheather is tempting me to go for a drive!
Did a loop up to Frederick and back late last night!
Maybe we can do it together tonight and try out the shoes?

Thanks Bill, Dave, and John.
I'll give one of you fellas a call after I get off work. You guys rock http://img79.exs.cx/img79/4492/lhdevil6ix.gif.

I'll be home the next few evenings and close by all weekend!
