Re: [ASC McLaren ] Tire Recommendations?

I hatre to enter this discussion of I like chocolate and not vanilla
of I like vinilla fudge & not chocolate, but for what it's worth, I
have always gotten what I considered superior service out of the tire
brand of "Generals". Also ditto on B.F. Goodrich brand. The two
flats I ever had were both using Goodyears, and the tires that always
leaked air and had to be "topped off" with air very frequently were
Michelins. My other experience was with Dunlaps. I thought that
they were also excellent, but very pricey.......They grip like glue,
however.
