They ripped me off for hundreds of dollars, never got the product, charged my credit card and sent a product to the wrong address weeks after I had already confirmed with them the order was canceled and bought somewhere else (I needed the product quickly, which they couldn't do. Ironically, they also charged my card for expedited shipping on the order that was sent to the wrong address three weeks after it was canceled). Thieves and liars, so be warned.

I have a 2004 Honda Rune. The OEM Dunlop D251 TIRES have crappy mileage life. Many Rune owners have opted to go to AVON. however THEY DO NOT MAKE A 150/60R-18 FRONT. So some guys are installing a Rear 160/60R-18 AVON in the same direction as it would be on the back. so they have gone wider and put a rear tire on the front . I am really skeptical about all that.But am still in search of something to replace the Dunlop's with better mileage and price. The rear has a 180/55R-17 ANY SUGGESTIONS ?

Hello! I have a KTM 390 Adventure and I wish to buy new tyres from you. I really like the properties of the new Michelin Road 6 tyres especially in the cold and wet, which are the model I would like to upgrade to from my Conti TKC70 adventure tyres. My motorcycle has a 2.5 wide, 19 front rim and a 3.5 wide, 17 rear rim. The stock tyre sizes and the tyres recommended in the bike manual are 100/90 zr19 front and 130/80 zr17 rear. The closest match for the Michelin Road 6 is 110/80 zr19 front and 140/70 zr17 rear, which other than the width I understand are close to identical to my tyres, and from what I understand they should fit well on my rims. From one rider to another, do you consider that switching sizes and going for the road 6s would provide better performance on the street, or should I consider getting a street tyre such as the Conti Trail Attack 3s or the Bridgestone BT46s that are the exact size my motorcycle manufacturer recommends? Thanks a lot!

I am an older rider (67) and very conservative…no wheelies, no hard starts, no hard breaking, and generally keep to the speed limits. I don’t go riding with friends to see how fast we can go on serpentine roads. I average about 7700 miles a year. I’ve been using a Dunlop Roadsport 2 rear tire, 180/55 Z R 17 and only get about 9950 miles until I need new ones. Is there a tire that will give me more mileage before needing replacement? Performance is not such a priority to me, as I travel in mostly a straight line

You can typically go up or down a little in tire size (eg 180mm to a 190mm) without any issues. You'll be getting wider surface area with more contact patch on the ground. Some people like the benefit but going wider can also dictate handling characteristics or feel such as turning/leaning over.

On a tube-type wheel, is there any benefit (like in terms of durability or otherwise) to using a tubeless tire (with a tube of course) as opposed to a tube-type tire? In this case, it's a Suzuki TU250X, and most of the aftermarket tires that people install seem to be of the tubeless variety.
@chaparralmotorsports4 жыл бұрын
Hi thanks for watching and commenting. It's not really recommended to run a tubeless tire on a tube type wheel since they aren't really designed to be run together, you may have issues with getting the tire onto the rim and most importantly getting the bead set. Not to say it can't be done or that people don't do it but it's best to run the proper tires for your wheels and vise versa

Thank you for your inquiry Dengelo. Yes, it is possible but creates a not so wonderful riding characteristic. At the 9:18 mark of this video I discuss the effects of putting a wider tire on a narrower rim. Basically, it pinches in the sidewall making the contact patch decrease and the sidewall very steep.

“ tube or tubeless” I don’t have a preference. Kind of reminds me of the women I like “ boob or boob-less” I will say a tubeless tire has never gotten me in trouble. I wish I could say the same for a boobless woman, Just sayin.

Hello, you need to check there is proper clearance for a larger tire.
