I have read good things about the 209's on the wera board. Let me know what you think of them as I am also in need of some new shoes.

These burnt up tires makin it hard to "walk it njunk"..last time it got a little loose on me and I was like "ohh schnapp!"

From what Steve from Race Tire Services was telling me, is that they're strictly a race tire. Meaning there is no street version I s'pose.

Heres my thread on the Wera board.

Got them mounted today...Ron and Pappa John were saying AMA uses the exact tire(pretty neat) and that the next step up from these would be a slick. Wants me to let him know how I like em...I know H_R_17 wanted to see the tread pattern so I snagged a couple of better shots...

Can't wait to try em out...Is it April yet?
