new tires for contemporary
hello ccx'ers. after several cruises, i have decided to swap out the shoes, as the GY bluesteaks that came with the car are old(10+ years), non dot, and unkind to the road(hunting and VERY rough). they are everything that i've read about them. the backs are 27.0 x 10.0 r15, the fronts 25.0 x 9.0 r15. what are my replacement sizes? what fit's best for the ccx? any recco's? i was looking at the avon's 295 rears, 245 fronts, then a stencil from racline.
thanks in advance... cheers, w. |
Go with the Avons, the best tire for the street for these beasts. When I need new tires, that's where I'm going. Just wish they were a little cheaper. :P Rich
|
Avons, vintage Dunlop's or BB's, be safe as they stick the best.........
Rated by cost 1) Vintage Dunlop 2) Avon's 3) BB's I am partial to BB's even though they are the cheapest in this grouping.... |
Get the Avons. Have fun.
|
am i ok on the sizes? 245 front and 295 rear?
thx, w. |
Good luck there. There aren't many manufacturers that still deliver the 295's. You may have to pick an alternate sized.
|
what sizes are you running?
|
The local cars I have put Avons on and driven are much better than previously fitted tires. The owners tell me the turn in and transition is unbelieveable. You get what you pay for.
|
avons sound like the best. 245 front and 295 rear gonna work? anyone running them on their ccx? pics?
thx! |
