 I know what will happen, it will turn.  Except for while backing into my 
 very crowded garage, my vehicle never moves at a snail's pace and I 
 often quickly turn the steering wheel.  If that causes anything other 
 than tire ware I wouldn't be buying that car ever again.  My current 
 vehicle has over 100,000 miles, and the only significant parts I needed 
 to replace were the tires.  Break shoes too, but those are pretty cheap 
 compared to tires.  BTW don't take it personal, but if you are one of 
 those people who slow down to a snail's pace every time you turn a 
 corner, I find you highly annoying when you're in front of me.  Even a 
 suburban can  take a corner on a city street at more than 5 mph, you 
 really should give it a try, makes driving a lot more fun too.
