Wow, I never had to work so hard for something as simple as buying rear tires . It unbelievable.
Between antiquated websites no phone numbers and slow reply's to emails its like pulling teeth to get a set of wheels..
Can anybody suggest a good tire (anything but super tire) and a reputable place to get them
Im looking to replace the stock ultra g tires which I believe is a .378 & something a little taller say .380ish or .400
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
