just check them for any dry rot and should be fine.
I purchased Chris' (Houston track guy) sport wheels a number of years back. They were wrapped with RE-11s with some track use but enough tread remaining for a few months on the street. One of them split on me 3 weeks later.

Nothing against the RE-11s. I just foresee a similar recurrence since the tires have a similar history. It is not a problem if something happens. Both times I was just buying the wheels and the RE-11 tread on them was just some bonus rubber for donuts as far as I was concerned

Agreed! I didn't put any hard miles on those tires either as I saved that kind of driving for the track.

A month or a year. The more people that just stay away from others all together will make the waiting time to be free again much quicker.

It's just golf. I wouldn't go. You'll survive another month or so not playing. My league was suppose to start on the 9th and that's been put on hold. If everything else is on lock down, you can be to for a bit. If I need to be outside, I go hangout on my porch or backyard and have a cigar or drink. No contact is even better than minimal contact.

I'm thinking this virus will linger at least until the end of this year. China dealt with the 2nd wave, which we have yet to see. They are also dealing with another virus called the hantavirus and have reported deaths from this other virus.

We have the hantavirus here. It's in the southwest. And it's deadly too. It's in mouse droppings.

I should clarify I play golf by myself for the most part. If I go meet someone. It is only one other person that I know is being responsible and taking things seriously. I'd probably pass on a group of people that wanted to play. Seen at least one 7some on the course pretty much every round I've played

Betty's snow is finally hitting us. Coming down at a pretty good clip. I had setup the Z to start polishing it but its too cold. Im done with this **** for the year. Tomorrow is suppose to be back in the mid 50s so that should be fine.

Those craft squares are tempting. I'm more inclined to go with the MCR glass replacement at this point as I structurally prefer the stock mirrors with my motor mounts.
