    Re: Group 24F Kirkland batteries back at Costco!!

    That's 540 CA for the spring-summer-fall months. The CCA for winter will be much lower. I hope you consider the winter months before purchasing the battery.

    It's always better to have a lower CG than a high CG of a deadweight i.e battery. A horizontally stored spare tire has a lower CG than if it's stored vertically.

    Group 24F or 124R should fit nicely. The 24F is slightly larger than the 124R and it weighs more. They both have the same 875 CA & 700 CCA. Another difference is that, the 24F raised vs 124R flushed...

  23. Re: New Here.. CAN ANYBODY ASSIST PLEASE? TIRE QUESTIONS!

    You need to check if the one wheel will clear one front brake caliper. If it clears then go for it. If you can afford a set of new snow tires go with 195/65-15 size.
