Now there is a thought!! I never thought about retreads. I wonder if
they still do that?


I'd rather go into hock and pay interest on the card than go retreads.
The last tires I put on the F-150 cost $31 apiece circa 2005 ($150/4
out the door with mounting, lifetime balancing, and warranties from
WallyWorld.) Import tires beat the hell out of retreads. I hear
truck retreads go every few weeks on the downhill near my house, and
they sound like shotguns going off when they blow the sidewall and the
peel their treads.
