Just got the teener up and atem!!
I put the biggest wheels under it that would fit.
Thought it would drive better,
but it looks kind of funny,
and drive kind of weird.
What should I do?

I'd let a little air out of the tires might solve your problem

Your problem is the Firestones. Their cross-section is much to large for the rims they are mounted on and under stress they crown and blister. Switch to Goodyears and you'll get much better times. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)
