In search of tires.....again.

Dave-d got the Vredestein Snow+ installed on the drive and car wheels before the RTB 3 rally. His wife really liked them in the gravel but they seemed to wear her out faster on pavement. They chased my old Goose around the northern hill country on Saturday, until I was stopped by a flat.

She sure handles that great and I had a blast leading. It was a great day with great company.

WHERE did you get those awesome stickers for the back of your saddlebags? They are great!!

I have a 2004 1150GSA with a DMC 15" pusher, and I'm running 155's, not 165's. The tread width is 6% less but the friction coefficient goes up on the contact patch so essentially they work about the same as the 165's.

Here's a recent pic--



That doesn't look too bad, does it?

A thread hijack, hopefully ended quickly, go HERE. Still current. They're reflective, too!

I don't see blizzak mentioned much as a pusher, do they not last long on pavement ? Has anyone taken a tire groovier to a nanking ? I sort of feel I should try that at least so my pusher doesn't outlive me.Happy T-day.DB
