    There's your problem right there. The coriolis effect with polished wheels causes significant wear.

    I have to ask…what is the purpose of these groups? Neighborhood watch, I can see. Preppers I can understand. Those far right minutemen/3%,Oathtakers, I can get that…

    …but these people are more akin to women who got to church to see who is wearing the biggest hat Sunday morning. I mean if the hat wear a weapon, I can understand, it’s used as a status symbol.

    My only question is 95 PSI. I’ve always run 110-120 on steers and never had wear issues.

    To be honest I never have run more n 95..I don't run heavy up front at all. Just heavy enough so the steering don't feel funky. This is the first issue I've had. And it's only on this right hand side. Everything else is 105.

    It was worth the reminder though. I hadn't thought about that term since taking a required Earth Science course in Oceanography...so many years ago. :) Funny, after you learn something like that, you seldom think about it again, although you recognize the actual effect in practice, for instance, viewing weather radar, without thinking about it, but knowing it. :)

    Yeah, I always remember having to keep steer tires at 105 psi. Trying to keep better traction by lowering it? o_O
