    I've never gotten a Shinko to last more than about 4K on the rear. They work great on the front and that's what I have up there right now, a 712.

    We'll see if the MT66 will hold up on the rear anywhere near what the E3 does.

      I've got a few Shinko 712 fronts that were egg shaped, had to take them off. Never had an issue with the 230 front, I think with the V rated tire, there is less chance of it being out of round, JMHO
