Yup, that was me...but that americanmototire.com site you mentioned (JJ) would have been about $8 cheaper, if I figured correctly. They may charge about $14 shipping, but the front tire price was less than at Eastern Performance Cycle (the link I posted). It's a wash...as long as whoever you buy them from is reputable and dependable!

Do you guys put the tires on yourselves at home or take them to the stealer? Any special tools required? Does the stealer have an issue with you buying the tires somewhere else?

Putting them on is easy ... taking them off is a bitch. 
You'll need balance the front one.

Yep sure do no wonder I got such a good price $235 no shipping. Well maybe they weren't in the same batch as the guy on RSR got. Guess I'll have to wait and see. |
