As I noticed there are some posts about tires.
Now my Plywoodracer is not far from his 7.birthday, but also on his seven year old tires. So time to change them.
So I‘ve got two questions: I‘ve got a sparewheel. Never used. Would you also change it? Yes, if I need it, it‘s bad. And: modern tires have a „rotation“ sign on the flange. So what‘s about the sparewheel? One side would be wrong.
The second point: I think about the factory fitted Yokohamas (yes, I know there would be better ones around) and
FIRESTONE Roadhawk 88H for just 80,-EURs (tire only). In Germany all tires have labes for fuel, rain and noise.
The Yokohama is fuel „C“, Rain „B“ and noise „A“
The Firestone is fuel „C“, Rain „A“ and noise „B“.
I think noise in a MOG is a joke, but the better rating in rain is a point.
Are there some ideas or expierience about the Firestones? Or other ideas? Yes, I read some other ideas, but in Germany they are about 120/130,-EUR per tire. Is the difference so big?
