AnyOne tried the Good Year Run Flats out?
#1
.......just wondering after having a flat recently.Are they alot heavier[Website dosnt specify weight], are they a nice riding tire? Would a good six ply tire be tough enough? My machine just has stock tires that i believe are just 2 ply. Heres a link to the GoodYear site....let me know what u think.Run Flats

personally, I like the Goodyear tires, but run flats are going to be a much stiffer tire ( translates into rougher riding )... they will also be MUCH heavier than your stock tires... I have gotten 2 flats with 6 ply tires, but they were nail holes, & easy to plug with a plug kit... in general, I'd say a typical 6 ply tire, will be enough for 99% of peoples riding... as it is, you'll be in for a lot rougher ride, & more loss of power, going to even a 4 or 6 ply tire, from most stock 2 ply's... I do highly recomment Goodyear tires, & had excellent results with the 26" Mudrunners...
welcome to the worst decision a quad owner has today, buying replacement tires... careful, as some of the cheaper tires, & more aggressive tread patterns can be so out of round, or out of balance, or of a lug design, that feels like you are riding on square tires... I own a 30' tire rack full of assorted tires, for various types of competition, & would be glad to offer an expirienced opinion, when you get closer to choosing a tire for your quad, & riding conditions...
