Qing Da Tire

So...I bought the cheapest "GNCC Tread Pattern" tire I could find for my Blaster (10" ITP Rear Wheels)
These set me back about $93 for the pair and were shipped to my door in about three days from Amazon.

Let me start off by saying they were a pain to seat the bead.

The first tire I had to spray brake cleaner inside the tire, around the bead, light it on fire, and then keep spraying until there was enough gas inside the tire to seat the bead.

The second tire I just manhandled and used my air gun with the trigger taped.

First impressions, I like the tread pattern a lot. The tread goes all the way around the tire and tapers slightly into the sidewall, so you got a lot of mechanical grip regardless of how tipped over you are.
Also, they list the metric equivalent size on the tire (not that it's that important).
These are also 4-Ply, so they seem fairly strong.

I will let everyone know how they do this weekend since I'm riding in Michaux State Forest with the girlfriend and her family.

 

Probably from the bottom of the pile.i sometimes use starting fluid.quick spray around bead,trail down side of tire and foot or two on floor. Ligjt from floor.instant inflation.make sure valve core is in

 

Also dawn dish soap on bead and rim.
Or I guess you can try KY

 

Getting alittle personal with the rubber there

 

Seems some of those cheap tires the bead is a touch smaller

 

That's only for the bedroom...although that never seems to be an issue

Correct!

 

So I rode in Michaux State Forest (Fayetteville, PA) and these things GRIP and I mean they grip hard.
It might be the fact that I got used to bald rear tires, but I like these things!

 

Tires are awesome!

 

Hmmm no snow thought is was cold up there

 

Psh, I wish we had snow. I only go to go snowboarding once this year.
It's been cold-ish, but not on a daily basis.

 

Maybe I'll try them on my nieces warrior.she needs new sneakers on the back.

 

I highly recommend them. Seating them is a pain though.

 

We'll see i might end up with it. She's been eyeballing the 4x4. She used to ride mine and loved it.mudding is big around here. But i just rebuilt the top end last Christmas so its fresh

 

Yeah, I kind of forgot Florida is pretty swampy.
I'm trying to get the old lady to ride dirtbikes with me. I made progress; she got herself an XR100 to learn on.

 

Crf230 are goog for the girls. Very predictable power

 

She would probably be good on one of those or the CRF150F
