October 8, 200520 yr why not just try them yourself? I might yet but if somewone replies and tells me that they have tried them and found them no use at all then obviously I will not bother. I am trying to find out what others experiences of these tyres are. Gordon
October 9, 200520 yr More to the point, how often do you guys change your tyres? An IRC rear will last me a good 6 / 7 months (with turning) and a front twelve months. With the IRC I know I'm getting a good tyre and at roughly
