    Need New Tires

    Contact "Karaya One" he's the michelin man on this site. As far as mounting / balancing them there are a few peeps around that can do that for you at a reasonable price.

    Depending on where you live would determine which peep you contact for the mounting.

    Hehehe

    Thanks bro,
    I knew that was his screen name. What I meant was where does he live or work, in other words, where would I go to pick up the tires to save on shipping?

    Need New Tires

    i'm thinking of just gettin a new rear tire cuz my front is fine and there isnt' much riding time left. i don't really have the cash for 2 tires. So does anyone know a local shop that has Dunlop 208szr 180/55/17 in stock? i've seen pricing around $115 for this tire, but that was in ohio and i don't wanna wait 3 days. thanks.

    Need New Tires

    Hey Guys,
    I'm interested in Michelin Race tires. I'm looking for a 120 front and 190 rear. I know, know...a 180 rear will turn in quicker. I would feel more comfortable with a 190 though.

    List or PM me what you have, size, name brand, model, condition (new, used) and price.
    I'm looking to buy very soon.

    Degsy,
    Once I get the tires I think I'll have you mount them if you don't mind. My parents and brothers live in Taunton so it'll be convenient for me.

    Thanks in advance,
    John

    Need New Tires

    I have a set of Michelin M2's in 120/70 and 190. They are the last of my 190 rears. BRAND NEW.

    I can get them off to Peter Kates if you need them. I'll ship them Thursday, he'll have them Friday.

    $275.00

    Current Michelin Power Race or PR Power Race will run you $350.00 a set.

    I can do this through Peter, too.
