Improving the handling on a ute

NZ, and they like the Americans spell it incorrectly, lol.

Partially correct on one point. Immortality lives in New Zealand, like many others not born there. Spelling in New Zealand as in
Australia is tyres not tires. If you refer to a previous post by Immortality you will see that he has spelt the word tyres.

Tire or tyres? these days they are readily interchangeable.

How true that is.....Some brands spell it tire, others tyre....

 

[keith reed]

Tire is the American spelling.

Tire is the American spelling.

True...Without going right into it, I have seen tyres manufacturered all over the world and depending on which part of the world the tyre comes from (and not necessarily the USA) that have spelt it "tire", whilst others have spelt it "tyre"....

Personally I think it's generally accepted spelt both ways

Update on the Lovells. I drove the two hours home this eve along the back road through the hills and along some gravel. On the tar and through some tight corners it has improved the handling quite a bit. Along some of the gravel handling was better too. Along the 2km of corrugated gravel it was still fairly bad, but on that stretch of road is anything is gonna cop it.
On another note my KYBs arrived today. Really happpy as i can use the pit to fit them, rather than lying on my back in dirt.
