Cars & Transportation - 13 December 2007

The tires I am looking at are the following:

225/45HR17 Continental ContiProContact SSR Blackwall
245/45HR17 Continental ContiProContact SSR Blackwall

1) Do I need to purchase different tires for back and front since it has the "sports" package that comes with different tires in front and back?

2) Can I use the rims that are already on there? or do I need new rims?

Thanks

My boyfriend just started working for honda as a tech and his hands are GROSSSS! His hands have always been extremely dry and rough to begin with so it seems to actually absorb the oil and grease from the cars. Soap doesnt work, the soap they have at work does not work, I've even forced him to get manicures with me and those did not work.

What soap is strong enough for this?

I just replaced my battery 2 weeks ago. Today the car began to stutter and lights dimming. It would not restart, dead battery.
I replaced the alternator, jumped it and it ran for about 3 minutes at a 3000 rmp before the ABS and Trac Cont lights came on, lights began to flicker, 1 minute later the battery light came on and it started to stutter again. I shut it off and now the battery is dead again.....?????? what now?

I am not a speeder, I might have went 75 or 80 but never over that, and I didn't stay at that speed long, maybe just to pass a car.....

I was told that TX does not use the same computer database as other states so I could get a license issued to me there. Anyone know any truth to that or have any suggestions?

I'm just beginning to learn how to drive, and my father and I were unsure whether a cop can pull us over if we drive in a parking lot.
We were about to in a large lot, but it did have some cars, and 2 police officers there.
(I do have my permit)

One of the mysteries of the universe is why do so many classic car builders install a low tech Chevrolet engine in a beautifully restored Ford??? Ford engine technology is years ahead of GM and they have built more exotic engines than Chevrolet can count. They dominate off road, drag racing and hold the fastest recorded Nascar speed ever recorded. Is it stupidity?Or just monkey see...monkeydo?

I have a 1998 Dodge Neon Sport. Recently I discovered a tiny leak on the top of the radiator. It progressivly over the past 3 weeks) had began to spit out more coolant from the leak. My tempurature gauge has been normal, not running high. I have added a bottle of "Stop leak", but that didn't work. I am prepared to add another bottle as soon as the coolant gets low enough so I can add the whole additional bottle. I am keeping an eye on the coolant level. Anyways, anyone know how much it will cost to have it replaced? I won't be able to do it for another month or so. Since I am keeping an eye on the coolant will it be ok to go about a month before getting it repaired? I only drive it about 3 miles each way to work. I just don't want to cause more problems and more repairs needed

When my car is parked, is it bad to lift the windshield whippers up in the air so that they do not get caught under the snow and the window is easier to clean off
