Re General Altimax RT43 215/60/15

That size will not work:

[FONT=Avenir LT W01_65 Medium1475532]If your speedometer reads 65 [/FONT][FONT=Avenir LT W01_65 Medium1475532]mph, you are going about [/FONT][FONT=Avenir LT W01_65 Medium1475532]68.5[/FONT][FONT=Avenir LT W01_65 Medium1475532] mph[/FONT]​

So what if your Speedo is off a few miles doesn't matter I have that tire 215/60/15 it's a great tire

This is from the service manual. In case you haven't done so already we forum members highly advise you to get one if you expect to do work on a Spyder. One source is canammanuals.com. About $30 for PDF download.

Thank you so very much, I did set them at 90, so I may reset to the lower number.
We got all new tires and will list them as soon as I can.

Great tire. We have installed quite a few of those. Suggest starting with 27psi in them and adjust from there to your liking.

I am going to order two for the front for my 2016 F3T next week.

PS Speedo is now accurate

PS: With my change to General Altimax my speedo is now correct. The General is a slightly higher profile tire than the factory Kenda. My speedo now matches my speed as shown on my Garmin.
