Re: I wouild like suggestions on Tires

I'll probably try the lasertec at some point and will be convinced of it's merits as well. I'm just don't have as many tire testing mules as you do...hopefully someday I will!unk:

Re: I wouild like suggestions on Tires

I was losing count and not sure what the hay thingy meant.......lol So I added a poll at the begining. I would still like to see the why's but in the end I think the poll will tell me how many liked each.. Hope you vote I value your opinions.

Thanks

Re: I wouild like suggestions on Tires

gamorg02 is there a advantgae to going with a oversized front, I like a big fat tire on back for looks and also more tire on the ground. Can you share your thinking on a bigger front and what size do you go with?

Thanks
Ron

just looks man. it might actually contribute to the wobble since any problems in the tire are exagerated by being farther from the center point.

i had a slight wobble with my last front shinko but i twas cured by a new tire, now its back (but i dismantled my front end in the meantime)

If you're just going to sell it, put the Shinko on it. I'd save as much money as possible.

If it doesn't sell by Saturday which I doubt it will I am going to do this and other things because I am keeping it. Just getting ready for what I want done after it doesn't sell. Trust me if I was going to sell it ( I guess it still could sell ) I wouldn't put another penny into it. hell I have over $2000 that I can't get a penny for. People are bitching because I have it priced $200 over book.


This info once again is for me once I decide to keep it.

Re: I wouild like suggestions on Tires

Oh well then they're both good tires but IMO I would go Metz... I am a Metz guy. If I couldn't afford the metz then perhaps I'd go with the Shinko.

Re: I wouild like suggestions on Tires

I'm not rich but a few hundred won't kill me to know I have the best tire under me... Price is not even a onciseration to me.. it's quality

 

[gamorg02]

Re: I wouild like suggestions on Tires

i use shinko b/c they're cheaper. if money was nothing, i'd go metz, seem to be a bit higher quality tire -> i have no legit info backing that up, just a gut feeling from the brand and general comments.

i had visible runout on my front shinko, no ones ever said they've seen runout on their metz. rear had some too that was visible when balancing.

Thanks...please also vote on the poll on the top of each page in this thread guys

Re: I wouild like suggestions on Tires

If quality is your major consideration forget the Shinko's, go with Metz...there's no comparison.

The poll results don't mean anything either, just look to Washington DC for proof of that! :biglaugh:

150 mph bike + Chinese tires = me thinking about that instead of enjoying the adrenaline. I went Metz.
