There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

There is a BIG difference with the addition of a single comma!

I'm not following this either. If you can't get the Formosa's in the stock size get the EVO's, many here using them. Not sure about the Achilles tires.

Not sure....
We don't have much on the Achiles tires but many are using the Federal. It all boils down to your choice. Seems they all work well and each have an opinion on which works best for them. If you already ordered a tire I am not sure what the question is or are you looking for approval for your choice...?? :dontknow:

The Federal, despite having the same number on its side, is far from the same size as the OEM kenda. The Kenda tires are not true to size. Actually a good bit undersized. You have to compare actual sizes if you want to maintain size. Many use the Federal tires just fine but they are not the same size as you indicate. Still do not understand the infatuation with cheap tires.

We have heard the EVOs characterized as having a "rough" ride...
That may have more to do with the tire pressures being run in them, so it's tough to say if it's an accurate assessment of them.
The Formozas have always received high marks!

Tires.. thoughts
We just put Continental Conti Pro Contact tires on the front and have a General Altimax on the back.
My hubs thinks "out of the box" with tires, etc. With the new tires and a lazer alignment, it is like riding on a cloud!!!

I just installed the Federals size 175 55r 15 on my 2013 RT. Wow, what a tremendous handling difference from the originals. Perhaps it is the wider tire, perhaps the contruction or the polymer. Who cares it is a huge improvement. :yes:
One additional footnote, I took the wheels/tires off the Spyder, took it to the local tire shop, they move a lot of rubber, asked them to remove the old and mount and balance the new, they took care of it straight away. $12.50 for each mount and balance, $2.75 disposal fee for the old tires, plus tax, done and out the door in 30 minutes from the time I walked in.

Evo's
I just put Federal Evo's on my 2015 RT-S today. Those thing make a lot of difference in the ride! The hold/grip well. Until you change to them it is hard to realize the difference they make. Very happy. Ordered from Walmart online. Mount/balance for $21 at Walmart. I have a Kumho on the rear.
