Talk:Faster Than a Speeding Ticket

This episode has always bothered me in that the basic premise of the story is factually inaccurate. You cannot just accidentally get as Whit says "bigger & wider tires,in fact." Earlier Whit focuses on the size of 15" (radius ) tires. Although you can get (even, perhaps, mistakenly from the mechanic) wider tires, you cannot get,for instance, 15" tires instead of 14" tires. They would have to replace your rims (wheels) first before they mounted an inch larger (or smaller) tire. Even if some unscrupulous mechanic did that to jack the bill, you would notice the bill as it would be many many times larger than with just 4 tires. Always research before writing & recording.:)

what if his old set of rims needed to be replaced too? also I have 2 set of tires and each one has their own rims so i can easily change them when i want to, what if Whit was purchasing a second set of tires with rims so he could change them himself Reddo 15:27, 18 January 2012 (MST)
