    After walking the byways of Remington, I agreed with my guide, a builder named Roy Skeen, who told me, "This is a neighborhood of nooks and crannies."

  5. Surprise: Two new tires should go on rear

    <strong><em>Q: I made an appointment at a 'chain' tire store for two new front tires for my front-wheel-drive minivan. Not till I arrived was I told the new tires had to go on the rear if there was significant difference between the amount of tread on the new tires compared to the old. I said I was replacing the front tires only because I'd experienced poor traction in several inches of snow, so putting the new tires on the rear would provide no benefit. We inspected the tires and the salesman concluded there was a significant difference, and said company policy dictated the new tires had to go on the rear. (By my estimate, the existing tires had about 25 percent tread remaining, and would have passed state inspection.) A different tire store granted my request, but only after I signed a form indicating I was taking this action against their recommendation. Other sources support the rear-wheels claim, but I disagree.</em></strong>

  7. The novelty can wear off

  13. Tractor-trailer retread tires: Safe?

    <strong><em>Q: I enjoyed your recent article on tire technology improvements and the demise of the full-sized spare. One area where technology appears to still need improvement is in recapping of tires. This observation is based on the amount of tire-tread debris on roadways, particularly on interstate highways. It is not uncommon to have to swerve around sections of tire tread on the roadway. I have had at least one instance where we were nearly struck by tread from the truck ahead of us while traveling at highway speeds. It would be interesting to learn how often accidents have been attributed to retreaded tire sections coming off of trucks and what process improvements have been made in recent years. As I understand it, retreaded tires are seldom used any longer on passenger vehicles, but they are common on truck tires for cost reasons.</em></strong>
