AusAnt Turbo Noob Donating Members 331 Member For: 12y 5m 2d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 02/11/12 11:10 PM Share Posted 02/11/12 11:10 PM (edited) Found a decent split in my Dunlops. Down to the canvas. Changed to spare (new tyre of same make). Not sure about tyre prices but interested what other people's opinions are. Am I better off buying 2 Achilles type tires to put on or just buy 1 Dunlop tyre? Edited 02/11/12 11:13 PM by AusAnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if the Dunlops are far superior to the Achilles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flops Get two new achillies for close to 250 fitted but is that split that bad ? With closer inspection id say its fine to keep using Get a flat head screwdriver and see how deep the split goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just showed brother in law who works as tyre fitter. He said it is best to get new. Edited 03/11/12 12:20 AM by AusAnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
