What brand of Tires?

I bought all my Tires at Discount Tire for around $250... I removed all the wheels in my Garage, took them to town, and had a young guy who runs his own motor cycle shop remove and replace all 3 tires for about $55... He did a great job, and if I ever have to do it again, I hope he is still in there!

Just wanted to know, what brand of tires did you purchase?
Were these tires the same as the OP Posted?
I just wanted to know if you got a better price.
Apples to Apples.
Thanks ......:spyder:

Ohhh, soo sorry. I bought Kumho ESCTA 225/50R15, seems like that tire was about $98 best I remember, and the fronts were Sincera 165/65R14 at about $65 each. Hope this helps.

I tried to order Vredestein tires for my 2018 F3 Limited a week ago and they kept cancelling the order because they can't sell car tires to put on a motorcycle. :gaah: Just wondering how you get around the car tire on motorcycle problem. I ended up getting Kumhos from a friend who has a tire store. His distributor didn't have access to Vredestien tires. Just looking for information for next time! ray:

Technically the Spyder has "J" type Automobile rims.
Tell the shop the tires are for a trailer.
Worked for me.

I ordered online. When the question comes up as to what vehicle they are for, there is an option to not specify. They don't need to know.

Thanks for the tip! I will do that next time. I loved my last set of Vredesteins and wanted another set but you can't always get what you want, but f you try sometimes you get what you need.

Put all the same tires on my wifes 2014 RTS, vredstrien 175/55/15 on front, she loves the way they handle at 18psi.
Already had the General Altimax RT43 in 215/60/15 on the rear at 26psi.

Just got the vredestien 205/60/15 for the rear of my 2014 RTS after running the General Altimax RT43 which got 25,000 out of it.

I have the same setup front and rear.....16 lb. front, 18 lb. rear.....nice ride, handles great. I’d rethink the 26 lb. rear and also lose a pound or two in the front. jnho

Gosh, I LOVE Tire Rack.

I'm lucky that they have a YOUUUUUUGE warehouse about 25 miles from where I live. I usually save on shipping costs by picking all my tires up from there.
