That's ONE!

Okay Bill,

That's 1 of 3 strikes for you....trying to start another tire thread!
You'll get another one for either an OIL or GAS thread!

Just do a search for "tires" and you'll be inundated with threads and opinions galore! Glad you found one you liked, hope it lasts as long as you want, cause usually the stickier the tire, the less mileage you'll get out of it! Egads.... look at me responding to this.....must....put....the.......keyboard.....dow n!
T.C.

Bill,
Pay no attention to the T.C. behind the curtain....

Tires are hard to find at the moment. I run a 17" on my '79, and like the eliteII Dunlops. Problem is, they are hard to find at the moment, and the III's are NOT out yet because of the strike.
There have been a LOT of discussions about tires, but they all come down to what YOU like.
