Same thing happened to me a month of ago or so. Couldnt find them anywhere and went with the hoosier dr. Seems to be a lot sttickier traction wise but the handling is much worse than the bfgs

Yea i see the hoosiers are available almost everywhere. Do they have any tread pattern or are they like slicks?

I didnt think it was going to be a problem finding BF goodrich or mickeys, but its proving to be a difficult task. Everywhere is on backorder! Atleast everywhere ive looked. I was hoping some sponsors would chime in?

the hoosiers have 2 lines of tread which just makes them street legal. So there isnt any tread design like the mt dr or bfg. I like the nt01 and might try that out for my next tire since i think im going to get about 1,000 miles out of the hoosiers.
