Just to rotate the tyres... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also emailed FPV and asked how much they charge and they replied "the black wheels are exclusive to the typhoon and we therefore cannot sell them directly to the public".

I am certain this is exactly what my tyre dealer did when I first scrubbed my rears. They put the fronts on the back and put new ones on the rear wheels and put them at the front.

QikSmurf Member 246 Member For: 21y 4m 18d Posted 12/07/06 04:37 AM Share Posted 12/07/06 04:37 AM If they were different, what is the spare? A front or a rear?Sounds wrong to me. If this si the case, what happens if you do swap fronts to rears? Mine are definitely swapped. I had a mark on a front wheel that is now on the rear.
