So for those who got new shipment v rubber what do you think so far ?
I am sick of getting the wobbles once I hit 70 on my 2.5 so I wanted to switch out my rims/tires for more tread. The company that I purchased my rims from gave me a more than fair price to swap out to the 3.5 .
So for those of you who waited for this new shipment what are your thoughts etc so far ?
Pics appreaciated as well.

They have bright white sidewalls and I they are a nice tire. I run one on my bike. Here is a pic of part of the new shipment. What I am saying is they rock! The ride from this wider tire on a wider wheel is far superior to a slimmer rim with a smaller tire.
I am yet to mount a new one on a rim. But check out the green shoes. LOL.

My Vee will be here Friday, cant wait. Went through some HELL today, I bought a Metz 140 to go with my Vee 120, when my Fat spokes get here Monday. Well the Metz came in yesterday, and the Whitewall was beat all to HELL. So, I called Eastern Performance to tell them and they acted like I was Lying. Gonna be sending it back tomorrow for them to look at it. Im not tryin to beat anybody out of anything, but I paid for a NEW tire, not one thats beat up. So, it'll be end of next week, HOPEFULLY, when I get to put everything on. Sometimes this Crap can be Stressful as hell.....

The shoes have had a long and fruitful life and let me tell you, no human shall go near them. They stinkto high heaven but I still wear them in the summer. I actually put them in my travel bag last time I was headed out adn I opened my bag the mornign before I left and everything smelled like shoes. But...they are something I jsut cannot bring myself to get rid of as they are so cool. We avhe plenty of Vee Rubbers in stock at the shop.

Dr. V-Twin has a happy customer here with the new vee rubber. The day they came in Shawn called me to let me know they just arrived and he could ship me out a set that afternoon. I recieved the wrong rear tire at first and then they overnighted me the correct size. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE, and thanks Dr. V-Twin.
