Need to get a 2nd set of tires for a 2nd set of wheels {winter/summer} just want to be sure that if I decide to try another tire manufacturer they will fit.

Stop at a tire store they can tell you tire height compare with the dunflops they give us as OEM I still think there are better tires. Although I have no problem with dunflops. I will go to a better rain tire when these are shot. that is if I live that long. :Coffee: ride safely fearless

Goodyear Comfortreads have a [B]nice soft sidewall [/B]allowing a more comfortable ride. They will be my choice when I need new tires.

Bob - That was my first thought too - Just curious if the tire roll would be an issue - Not a lot of room under the fender.....jc

Bob, Would a soft sidewall give you the safety margin in the event of a blow out?

I run 22 psi in my Stock Dunlops.
I am hoping that I can run a higher air pressure in the Goodyears and still get the ride I like.
Run-flats give a very harsh ride in a MINI. I can't imagine how a trike would ride.
I've got 26k on my Dunlops in 30 months .... so probably 2 more years before I have to make a choice. Tires are being engineered for lighter vehicles and advancements are made each year.
Good luck with your choice. I run Michelin Pilot Sports A/S on my MINI and they are awesome wet or dry.
So this is where I'm thinking of going - Just over a $100 with maybe the best wet traction rating out there.

Rick - Have you had any problem with those tires and road noise? I've heard a few people say they get very loud after they break in {5-8K}
Thanks - jc
