    Default tire mismatch question

    I have Radials on the rear. Can I put a bias-ply on the front?

    You want Bias ply front and radial rear that is the correct combo. BT45 with 40 lbs is my vote.
    When I am gona fix something I will fix it. You don't have to bug me every 6 months.

    Bought the BT 45. I have a week to agonize over forward or reverse.

    My thoughts exactly. I've run three BT45 reversed. Next one is going on forward. I want to satisfy my curiosity. I haven't looked at the tire since getting back from Eureka Springs but I'm guessing it will be in the next month or so.

    BTW.... Skuuter we missed you and your bride. It was a GREAT gathering but wish more could have enjoyed the FUN !!!!! I'm about caught up here at home so I'll start on the video soon...

    I'm like an old race horse..... I can still run the race -- Just ache more at the finish line and need more rest between outings.

    What ever you choose for tires up front, use Dyna beads to balance the tire. You will never be happier!
    I have to check, but I have 10,000 on my Michelin Pilot Activ reverse with Dyna Beads and it looks brand new. Going for 20,000 and will let you know how it looks. Oh yes, 41psi.
    Good luck.
    What mileage did you get on your BT?
