By tough I am thinking you want durable. Look at the ratings on the side wall. Look for A ratings. Treadwear is relative but in my opinion not as important. If there are no load range rules, look for a light truck tire. Hope that helps.
What about innertubes and doubling of tires?
The tire shop (Gemini) is no more, so I would recommend the used tire guy in Bay Shore on Union Blvd. behind Southside Hospital. It used to be called Tire Man, but has since changed hands and I naturally cannot remember the new name. They have a 40 series Coates machine, as well as the rim clamp style, so they should be able to do what it is you desire. If they are not interested, try Rayda Tire up on Suffolk Ave. in Brentwood. There are other used tire shops, I just listed the ones I have dealt with.
Holy cow!!! It's RWB!!!
Are any of you guys coming to Mountain for the NEETS derbies? :confused:
When are they?
July 3rd - Smallcar aka 4cyl
September 5th - Bigcar aka 8cyl
October 8th - "Mini Van"
going to go to Sept 5th (big car) and maybe the mini van one. how About you?
Doing my first ever derby July 3rd (smallcar). Maybe more this year too.
Why don't try using donuts? (not Krispy Kreme or Dunkin')
That would work, just gotta use 14" dounuts on the back compared to the 13"s snow grips on the front.
if you want can put you in touch with someone trying to get an order together from moore tire? in rock falls and the more tires you get from them the cheaper they are, really the shipping that kills you,they are very heavy tires! :D
