front tires

[charles franz]

Going to get into a trike build before to long and need to know what you all would recommend? Mine has a date of 4/06, I want to be sure that I have no wobble due to a tire, Thanks, Charlie

I'm not sure what your question is here. If you build rear trike the front will need raked a bit for proper handling.

If that is a manufacture date on a front tire you should replace.

I'm not sure what you are asking, Charlie. Can you expand it a bit?

Sorry folks, Been doing the HDL, I am going to buy a new front tire for the wing, Is there a tire better than others? As in name brands? I want to make sure that I do not have a front wobble to a tire, Thanks Charlie

I like those Shinko A230 Tourmasters which seem to work well and are good value, I don't know how they will stand up in a trike application but I am impressed and so is Backlander who recommended them to me initially.

The Bridgestone S11's are good too.

Agreed! I just changed out my front tire. It was on the bike for 22,000 miles and still has tread, but the tire is now over 7 years old. I bought another Bridgestone S11! :clapping:

Thanks folks, I am NEW at this and trying to keep my ducks in a row. I would like to make sure that I do not spend money and then have to regroup, I will be posting pictures before to long, Thanks again, Charlie in NC
