I'm kind of paranoid about tires. Yes, I live in what's really a high desert where it doesn't tend to rain much, but when it does, it does. You never know when the snow is going to arrive either, being at altitude with the mountains all around.I'm still scratching my head; why someone would risk one's life riding a Spyder with that rear tire - and at 80 mph!
I tend to change tires on anything, long before the wear bars, on cars, motorcycles, or the Spyders. I monitor and change all my adult children's tires too, though I've no idea what they are going to do when I'm gone? I stick to name brands, as off brand tires tend to be a false economy safety wise. On four wheel vehicles, I rotate them often enough so that I always replace four as a set, regardless of what tread is left on front or the rear.
