 What are your favorite SUV Tires

I wooda thunk. Like batteries, the best in one size is usually a different best brand in another. Some Continentals did test low, but by far the best snow traction was from a Continental winter model.

All of the book stores like Borders are closing and books are now being read on electronic readers or computers or ipads or smartphones.

The Nook e reader is the one from Barnes and Noble and goes for about $99. I currently have a collection of about 80 books that I have gotten from free sources that my family is reading so it is very economical compared to buying them.

I got my dad (91 years old) one for Xmas and he loves it and has read over 12 books in just 3 months Smile He says it rally helps with his arthritis so he does not have to hold ahevy book open, plus he can make the print any size he likes, and can use it at the park.

Thanks Dennis;

I think I've heard the wife's sister talk about something like that.
My wife is an advid reader who can consume two books a week. We both have advancing arthritus in every joint we have and in some joints I didn't know I even had so that might be something she could use.

Frank.

Dennis, I'm sure you'll be more than happy with the Continentals.

Two of my Benz's have them, including the SUV I mentioned above which has Cross Contacts. Not that I would ever violate any speed limits, but I can tell you without hesitation, they are as smooth as glass at 100+ mph and still going fine after 60k miles.

Let me know where you score all the free e-books though. My good lady goes through them by the scads.


Best of luck.

Most communities public libraries offer online access to ebooks based on your library card. Our system lets you take out up to 5 at a time and you set up a list that you want and wait for them to be available either in epub or kindle format. You just have to read fast as there is a time limit just like at the library.

I would never do this but I have heard that there is software called Calibre that can be used to change from one format to another. I also understand that with certain plugins for Calibre you can even remove the time limitations as well, so you can read them whenever you want.

Dennis,
I think the site Ken was talking about is Tire Rack. Whenever I'm considering getting new tires I go to their site to read reviews. The reviews give some feedback, both good and bad from everyday drivers that have purchased the tire in question. I have also purchased tires directly from Tire Rack. They have great prices and provide you with the names of garages in your area they will deliver to and that will install the tires. Buying from them was a good experience. Good luck, Steve.
Here's the Link...

So far so good, the tires look great on the vehicle. Car handles well with them, seems to ride better, more confident driving.

Just got the free Barnes and Noble Nook eReader that you got if you purchased 4 tires this week, plus it was buy three get one free when I bought them so, I am very happy Smile
