Vee Rubber

[pwilbarger]

I got the Dec. issue of Roadrunner magazine today and at the back there is a gift guide. One of the ads there is for a new performance tire for Spyders called ARACHNID. I checked their web site and didn't find it listed but there was one called the BLACK WIDOW which looked similar to stock tires. I think they are made in Thailand. I never heard of them. Anyone here know any more about them or the tires?
Thanks

DIFFERENT TIRES

Considering how many excellent brands/choices there are out there ( other than Kenda ) ....Why would you even consider a tire probably no one has ever heard of ? ? ? ? IMHO ......Mike :thumbup:

Just because I've never heard of them doesn't mean no one else has. Also this is the first time I've seen an ad for a tire designed specifically for Spyders.

Vee Rubber's web site

I just checked out the Vee Rubber web site and they do have tires specifically for the :spyder2:. You can download their motor cycle catalog by first going to this link, http://veerubberusa.com/download.php and then selecting the Motorcycle catalog. they have the Black Widow tire listed on page 3 of the PDF under Trike/Radial tires.

When I was searching for tires for my pull behind trailer I found Vee tires.
Trying to find a distributor that had the ones i wanted was impossible.

It's never a bad idea to have more options... :thumbup:

They don't give much information beyond load and speed rating.

You'd think their target would be North American customers as that has to be the lions share of Spyder owners.

Their website states "excellent straight line performance".
WHAT ABOUT THE TURNS??? Very little information, so I'm NOT sold.

ARACHNID TIRES


The OUTLAW boys mounted them on our own personal Spyders 2 months ago...we head to the AIME EXPO in Orlando on Wednesday October 16th for some feedback as VEE RUBBER is a vendor...we will post results after Biketoberfest...so far a nice tire..installed all 3 on mine and Norms. :thumbup:


FYI : mounting new tires ( even the back one ) did not effect the laser alignment at all

I'm thinking it's going to be hard to beat some of the automobile tires folks have been mounting on their :f_spider:.

Does anyone know were I can get these new tires in California? I can't seem to find a source.
