Bridgestone Tires

I filled out a online questionnaire a couple of weeks ago on a Bridgestone tire site. I asked the dreaded question about rear tires on the front running backwards. I expected that I might at best get a form letter return email stating it was not recommended blah, blah, blah. What I got was a very pleasant surprise phone call from an engineer. This engineer just happens to be a bike rider of many times over # of bikes. I got the official blah,blah blah. I also got a follow bike rider telling me GO For it! The phone call alone shows me a class act in customer relations.

Good to hear that they are of the same opinion on this issue.
I just got a BT-45 rear tire that I plan to have reverse mounted on the front of my BMW trike sometime next week. I'm tired of changing out Metzelers every 12,000 miles, so hopefully the BT will do better. We'll see.
