Changing Tires

By November 1, everybody who owns a car in Hungary must put on their snow tires.  The mission cars have a special place in Budapest that changes the tires, and then keeps the ‘summer’ tires until they need to be changed in the spring.

The tire place is located deep underground in an area that is used for parking for one of the downtown malls.

Unfortunately, when we had our tires changes, they did not keep track of where they had been balanced in the past.  This makes driving our car have a front-end vibration that shakes the whole car when we are driving at 110 kilometers per hour or faster.  The newer mission cars have the entire wheel changed, not just the tires.
