Snow tire disadvantages?

[ths61]

Greetings from China this week. Sure will bob109. It took me 4 years to put 24k on my Harley. I wouldn't want to keep a tire that was much more than 5 years old on any motorcycle. My average ride is 250 miles per day.

FWIW, the new Dunlop E4's are advertised as being quieter and higher mileage than the E3's.

Wow, that's great news! I didn't notice the tires being noisy. Thanks for the info.

The list of past cycle tires advertising higher/improved mileage is long. Riders results have proved that gains have been small/minimal, if any! Things may change in the future when you see Threadwear, Temperature and Traction Ratings embossed on cycle tire sidewalls. Of course, I personally wouldn't hold my breath for that to happen I believe the old adage of "If it sounds too good to be true it usually is" was written specifically for cycle tires
