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.

If/when you use Auto tires, Peter & I have found that fronts are best at 15 to 17 PSI .... 15 for comfort up to 17 for aggressive riding .... 18-19 PSI for rear ..... Vredestein makes the best 14 in size .... go to Tire Rack (Brands) they have the 165/65-14 in the Quatrac 5 model ..... Mike :thumbup:

I have been trying to find a 14" Vredestein but have been unable to do so. Checked the Tire Rack with no luck but I will keep trying. I have several thousand miles left on my front tire. Thanks for your advice, Leon

Tire rack advertises " FREE SHIPPING " and they honor it ..... what they don't say is " only from the warehouse nearest your address " .... :banghead: ..... other members have run into this problem ..... it may be possible to get on a delivery LIST for the warehouse they will ship to you from ..... It's a very popular tire onthis Forum , however I'm surprised that it involves ...14" sizes .... not many veh's use this small a tire today ..... good luck ... they will be worth the wait ....

It might help just to look for the tire itself, rather than going thru your usual supplier or one of the generic mobs - I got a bunch of potential suppliers supposedly in/delivering to South Carolina just by entering 'Vredestein Quatrac 165/65R14 +South Carolina' into my search engine - looks like Black's Tire & Auto Service either have them or can get them for you. :thumbup:

I did the same thing. I went to my local tire store that I have shopped at for years and he sold my a pair of Coopers, don't remember which model. I run them at 16 lbs and they do well. They grip for as hard as I ride and seem to be wearing well. I have maybe 10,000 on them.
