New tires
Just got a set of European Classic whitewalls on the 31 yesterday. Sure makes the old whitewalls look yellow.

Re: New tires
Can you use north American air in them? Or do they need European spec air?

Re: New tires
I put North American air in mine last year, and they are still holding the air!

My radials said the same thing, but they yellowed on their own. The places almost look like age spots on a human. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: New tires
Jet or Brillo soap pads work great for cleaning whitewalls

Re: New tires
Does North American air have more or less moisture in it? Asking for a friend.

That would be funny if it wasn't true.

Re: New tires
i didn't think that you could use European air. I was told that the air goes in and spins in the wrong direction.

Re: New tires

Re: New tires
Maybe it would help if there weren't so many career criminals on the street...??? Not being political but just a thought...Prayers for the families of the victims as well as the entire community.

Re: New tires
Gary the ads with those Diamond tread looking European tires look pretty tempting.
Good looking tire and the price is right . Made over in Europe I'm sure they are good quality. Keep us posted on how they ride, wear, etc. Did you use new Bratton made tubes, use your old tubes, metal stem valves or long rubber stem?? Bert's offers those tires so if they stand behind them I bet they are first class, |
