Re: Why doesnt anybody use Goodyear slicks?
I have not seen anywhere that has them any smaller than a 29" tire. Thats way too much tire for me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Plus the are a bit more expensive than the MTs or Hoosires.

1madss hit it on the head for me. Until I run something like a 5.13 gear I see no need for a 30" tire

Re: Why doesnt anybody use Goodyear slicks?
they are MUCH softer of a tire and wear out much quicker
that means you have to buy tires more often
Also, most people around here use DOT slicks and goodyear doesn't make a tire like that
They are great tires, i'd run them
