The one thing that drives me nuts on my Box is how loud the stock Michelin tires are. This is encouraging when it comes time for me to replace them - I'll look at the Good year tires.

just so we are so are not providing any mis-information, new tires need to be scrubbed in a bit to wear off the mold release agent, the stuff that makes it so the rubber releases from the tire mold when made at the factory and not an "Anti-mold/fungal chemical"
