A few months back. I'll be double-checking this Friday, just to be sure. You
make a good point - the alignment *could* be out of whack. I had my winter
Blizzaks on until last week (it's Maine <g>) and didn't notice any problems, but
the Kumhos are much wider and that alone may expose alignment issues that the
narrower Blizzaks would mask.

I've thought about it, but haven't invested in the gear because my alignment
pretty much stays set once it is set and my track alignment works fine for the
street. If I was running an more radical autox alignment, with larger toe
settings to help (relatively) low-speed handling, I'd consider it.
