Pappy's got a brand new C/T
The Toyo Proxes was getting old and also had picked up a nail in it. Time to replace it.
Chose a Vredestein Sportrac 3 due to it being a slightly crowned tire and having soft sidewalls. The edges of the tread fade into the sidewall very gently as well so it should behave more like a cycle tire. Also liked the looks of the tire and the fact that it should be one Hell of a good rain tire. Size is a 205/60/16.

Looks Like It's Pretty Bike-Friendly. Hope It Works For You. I Love The Way That The Austones Handle And I Am Also Pleased With The Price And Longevity Of The Austone Taxi Tires.

Hmmm I pride myself in having an offbeat, warped, "special" kind of sense of humor but I have to admit this one went right over my head???
Splain' please before I have to get Billy Boy to explain it for me.
