As some of you noted to me after the Cleveland show and after the Cincinnati show, the issue of tires got a lot of questions. The judges were looking and marking the tpe and condition of tires even on the daily drivers. This is standard on other shows and to put it simply a person with original tires should be rewarded for them, however if in bad shape or worn then a new set of clean tires would help in the appearance. There is a bias towards original tires but what you gain in originals unless perfect will be lost as the condition deteriorates. I agree with Knut and but as far as the points I leave that to the judges they have been consistant in both concourse and general and that in itelf is important and it will get better as time goes on.
