I ran down to Colorado Springs yesterday for a set of new tires for my Honda Ridgeline. I love "New Tire Day." It felt like a different vehicle on the drive home, much better. Can't beat a new set of Michelins to replace the OEMs. Was just out in the garage, and that "new rubber" smell is lovely! And while I was down there I picked up a Taylor GS Mini bass. Used, but like-new, off of Craigslist. Heckuva deal too (see link). Played it for a while last night, just noodling around, what a blast! All in all, a very good day! denver.craigslist.org/msg/d/englewood-taylor-gs-mini-bass/7434149221.html

Love NTD for all the same reasons. I’m a Cooper man myself.

Thanks, Ricketi. It is a little thing, about the same size as my Martin 00.
Leftee, Cooper makes a good tire, would have been my second choice. I use to put them on my kid's cars when they were at home, always had good luck with them.

I’ve always had great service from them, so I’ve stuck with them.

I find the Kingman kinda bulky.

You're livin' the dream, man. I also love NTD. I've probably got another 20K on my Toyo OCs -- can't wait to swap them out for some taller BFG KO2s.
And nice Taylor -- they do a good job with that Koa.

Thanks, NSR. It's my first koa guitar.
It's got a varnish finish, also a first for me. The koa is very porous, and the varnish fell down into the pores. It's cool, I like it.

That mini bass looks amazing, probably sounds just as good!

Very nice on both counts, tires and bass! Michelin's are good tires as are Cooper and Continental

Now I got "Blister in the Sun" stuck in my head. Thanks AK, I was wondering what to learn first. I think that's the one!
