tires for spree

Post by malaka »

i read the thread on tire size for the spree. what i am wondering is there a 10 x 2.5 tire that has a more modern design. or am i stuck with the same old one i have now. i was considering going to a larger tire but have read many accounts of it killing the take off power. any help would be great.

Chengshin makes 2.5-10 tires.
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

I just bought a set of those - $50 for two tires and two tubes shipped and I love them.
