tire change at the track.


hey guys, I want to run last weeks tire in practice friday, then grab a new one for sat... I have it already.

It's a dunlop, so not sure if the pirelli guys will swap it for me, or how much that will run.

If it's going to be costly, I'll have it mounted to my spare wheel, and just swap the sprocket over when I swap em.

what are you swapping it too? If you are putting on a new dunlop, go to dunlop ... if you are putting on a pirelli go there ... its a michelin ... you get the idea.

Either way, Michelin is the only one that does free tire changes on tires you buy from them beyond the first mount and balance, the other vendors charge you $10. If you buy the tire(s) there though, they don't charge you for the first mount and balance ... plus the tires are less expensive at the track.

The Dunlop dude took my Avon rains off, and put on Michelin's for me in the dash. 20$. He's my personal savior, next to McBigglesWorth.

or if you just buy them he will.


Bridgestone, dunlop, and I believe pirelli will mount any tires for a fee. Michelin will not mount anything other than michelin no matter.
