Blew out an inside rear on my service truck 100 plus miles from home a few weeks ago. Bad as I hated to I went with a "cheap" recap. The tire on the outside has been slowly eating itself from having to take an extra share of the load after being put on new, beside a used tire, after catching a rock with the one it replaced while leaving a quarry one evening a year or so back. Since I knew that another new tire would do the same being put on beside a now worn 'new' tire, I cheaped out because I know I'm going to have to get all of them new soon anyway.....and that's really gonna hurt the wallet.....

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
