I have a home made VW trike---

I will be needing a new front tire in the next 90 days.

Asking for opinions as to which tire to buy and where to get it.

Thanks in advance.

Need a little more info on what you all ready have. Builders have used a lot of different front ends in their builds.

OK--after reading all the posts, it seems like the thing to do is to put a rear tire on the front of my trike (GL 1200 forks) and reverse the direction--then put Dyna Beads in it.

Tire size is 130-90-16

I think that I have it narrowed down to 2 tires--

the Michelin Pilot Active and the Bridgestone Battleax.

Taking opinions on the pros and cons of each tire.

Thanks in advance.
