    The Good, the Bad and the Ugly....tires on a 250SX

    Decided to do a little side by side comparison to see how tires/wheels can change the look of a trike....
    first the good (Goodyear Runamuks 20x11x8)

    Hey...at least you didnt have 2 or 3 different tires on it at the same time. When I had my SX, there was a turf tamer on the front, a wooly-boger on the left rear and another turf tamer on the right rear. Now, my friend has a Stryker on the right rear where the turf tamer used to be

    since they are so bad, you can just send the turf tamers to me. i personally like the tamers best myself. the front tire does make a huge difference on the looks of the trike.

    I like the Goodyear Runamuks but it looks like they are on backwards. Arent the chevrons supposed to point forward?

    350XXX: I actually like the tamers also... when I said "bad" I really meant BAD (as in trailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro).

    renotrike: by pointing the chevrons backwards they should scoop (I think) whereas if they point forward they wont.

    vartiak15: which wheels?

    compaq: I dont know how much they are, I bought the tamers on the wheels as you see 'em for $70 off ebay.
