CalVin tire choices (extreme)
aklawok:
So it is coming on time to reshod the stalonne, and I have found it difficult to find the right tires for my use. Where I live it is 80% *rough* gravel road, so looking @ADV tires and think I have settled on this:
Shinko 705 140/80-17 tube type.
There is no match for the 110/90-18 front and it is proving more of a challenge. The Metzler ultra marathons on there now have done great considering the pounding they get, but tend to be a little slippery.
If you have any opinions or suggestions feel free.
antmanbee:
Shinko 705 4.10-18
This is what I think was run on my old Calvin from several years ago.

I ran this on the front of my Jackal and did great in the mud, noisy on pavement , had a knobby metzler on the back.

I've ran several sets of 705's on my Tiger and T7- they work fine for me.
