So what's happening, Mike?

The Vredestein Quatracs are made in the Netherlands and are awesome tires. We've been running various versions since around 2008 to present and will ,keep using them for as long as we have a smart. They are also an All Condition snow flake rated tire so are great for the type of weather we get on the West Coast.

If design intent based on load is to use two struts only using one will result in one half or less normal life expectancy...

She has the better car...

So, order another?

Has anyone else had their brake drums start to show iron oxide (rust) staining? Ours were slowly getting worse over time so, I painted them with a black textured rust paint and they look awesome!

Probably a good choice...

$90.00 Cdn after adding shipping and exchange is not such a great deal... To say nothing of how long it will take to get them plus taxes etc. may be assessed.

The prices for all ICE cars are going to crash horribly in the next five years with the huge uptake of EV's...

We got $6000.00 for ours in 2017. That was the value given to us by the Scrap-it program when we bought our 2017 ED. That car is gone forever...

Won't work with TPMS...

Have to provide negative covid test results not sure about heading back to US as you're a citizen. My friends went to New York and had to provide negative test results both ways...
