 New Front Sneakers put on today
Took front tires to a local tire place and had them put my new tires on. Just got done installing them. I put on Altimax , RT43 tires. Now I have 3 new ones on my Spyder. Also went to my local Spyder dealer and picked up a spare plastic mirror hanger. I had to use my other spare 2 weeks ago. Now I am ready to ryde some more. Bruce

I had those on my RT ( 175/65-15 ) , however I had to add washers to get clearance from the fender brackets ..... I also got over 37,000 mi. on them ..... good luck .... Mike

Peter, I have thought about it, but I am cheap. I have broken 2 of those clips in 10 years. The first one I broke trying to put mirror back on, second one broke on a rough road. Maybe I need to ask the wife for them for christmas. Bruce

Long before they offered magnetic mirror mounts, I purchased spares of those plastic mounts and kept them in the trunk along with spare plastic push rivets.
Again, before magnet mounts were available, I modified our Spyder, doing away with those huge clumsy vibrating mirrors, and installed sleek securely mounted mirrors.
Guessing, I still have those plastic mounts in the trunk, and will double my money, trading for lunch, when another Spyder snaps a mirror off and needs those parts. Enjoy your oem setup.

You're still using those dodgy placcy hangers that break so easily & need constant replacement?!?
