Tire swap at Ohio 2005?
« on: August 09, 2005, 20:47:02 »
It's fun to hear about the very successful event at Joe Alexander's recently. I wish I could have been there as well. I was wondering if there was time for any of the attendees to swap wheels and tires with others for a comparison on handling as proposed weeks ago. It would be interesting to hear any thoughts and conclusions about tire size, speed ratings, manufacture, etc.

The only swapping I am aware of was with cars. It was enlightening to drive a couple of different vehicles and see how different, the same car can be. I don't think there was any definitive comparisons made for ride quality. But a lot of fun to talk about.
