Just because a tyre does not look right or kool does not mean it is no good etc. Looks are out of the question, if they work well who cares.
In the XRRA the tube shark runs them and they peform just as good as the others in the events. So far I only saw one pop from them and that was the last race they did on them. All the rest of the tyre's Bfg's, etc, had been popped alot during the day.
I know looks has nothing to do wit it man. Just something i look at is all! I hope they turn out to be a good tire cause i would buy them just cause i like the old ones so much and would like to stay wit the same tire but the look i would get over that if they get me over the gnar stuff! HA HA i did see them in person on a runner a few months ago and they do look better than a picture of them when ya can see the whole tire. But still don't change my mind on the look of it! Its just so hard for me to get over that they changed a real good tread pattern and ya can't get them any more.
Now thats gay right there!! LOL No seriously i will be checking back at this when its time to get my 40deez and see. So good or bad news everyone post em up we need to hear!!
