Off to LaborReady...

wolfwingsBoots laced up with a very decorative lace that chew up the couple of FEET of excess laces I have.
Clothes clean and dry.
Car running, albeit with worn-out, dying tires.
Let's hope I get a hundred bucks or more out of LaborReady between today and tommorow, so I can buy at least two replacement tires. Ideally, I'd pick up a full set, but that's off in the future still. Wishfully-thinking, I'll be picking up a new set of rims as well, but not for performance reasons so much as to reduce the long-term cost of tires on this car. The stock tires (165/70/13's) are a noticable jump UP in price compared to plus-sizing by one or two steps. As in, $80 new versus $45-$55 new per tire price difference. And the rims will cost about $40 a piece, so they'll pay for themselves if I have to replace the tires once.
