Re: 98 SL motor/transaxle mounts?

1 things for sure and that is it needs new tires. They're not bald but tread is thin enough that it wants to hydroplane real easy on a wet road. I was taking a sweeping turn at about 45 in the rain, the car started to hydroplane just a bit and at that instant a deer was in front of me so I tapped the brakes just a bit while at the same time I hit a slight bump which made the suspension do it's crab walk thing. All happened simutaneously and me and the saturn almost ended up in the ditch with a deer for a hood ornament. I missed the deer and stayed clear of the ditch but it sure got my attention. Checking out the tires a bit closer I found it has P170's up front and P175's in the back and to top it all off, the drivers rear is a Douglas, the other rear is a Goodyear and the 2 up front are Dunlops.
