If you have run a car tire and gone back to a MC tire, I would like to hear why you went back.

If you are running a car tire and like it, what brand?

Thanks for the help.

Re-read the OP statement. He specifically said he does not want your opinion.

Nobody cares that you knew a guy that new a guy that new a guy. Keep it to yourself.

no... I said I knew a guy...so don't put your 2 cents in and misquoting me. so you go bury your head too. You cannot post on here without getting both sides of the story, just the way it is on forums.

So in three pages of replies the OP has managed to get two posts that recommend tires and one that kinda recommends not using another brand. I am interested in this also, so I had hoped he would get some good answers, not a bunch of crap from people that don't care what the original question was. This is especially disheartening when he specifically stated that he didn't care to hear from posters telling him not to do it! The argument here should be over which brand and type is best.
