new shoes

well I am here to say I am less then pleased with these tires . It only cost me $30 for a new tire that was installed before my ride on Saturday. Not more than 16 miles into my ride the other front tire blew out . Now granted when I ride it is hard at times, but my stock carlisle tires never suffered a blow out in the 650 miles since I owned it. Now I have two side wall blow outs with my new tires in less than 40 miles . I had 3 plugs in the one hole and then noticed a smaller hole above that which took one plug. After finishing my ride I looked at every root, log, rock and just thought is this going to be where I get my next flat ?????
I emailed the company where I bought them from this morning to tell them I don't want them and wish to buy something else. Lets see what happens. If not there could be a set of slightly used duro power grips up for sale

That's a real bummer. I was looking into those tires too at one point. Thanks for the review. It may help someone else that is leaning one way or the other to take a good look. I hope everything works out. I am getting a set of Dirt Devil II's on Friday and I have read a few things but not a lot, so I am hoping that they work out for me..

got some Maxxis Big Horns on the way at a really good price
going to send back the 3 tires that don't have any sidewall damage and get some credit for them
I will have to say where I bought them is top notch. They have admitted there is an issue with these tires with the sidewalls but mostly with the 14" tires.
I will have to say if you are going to be doing any serious riding don't get them, now if you are just going to be out for a Sunday ride than they should do the job at a decent price.
Oh and did I mention I am going to the Hatfield Mccoy trails next Thursday
also if anyone had reservations at the Logan Motor Lodge you will want to know that it burnt down last month. they haven't called anyone because all of their records burnt too.

LOOKS GREAT!!!
Sorry you had to go thru so much to get what you likely should have bought to begin with...
I bought a set of the BH's as well, cannot wait for the season to arrive to try them out!!!
It's like I like to say... The sweetness of a good deal fades when the reality of poor quality comes to light.
