Default Finally

Guys,

Went on a road trip with Dan McCaw of Coe Hill fame to Vintage Tires in Hershey, PA. After years of procrastination, I came home with a set of STA 10.5' x 16's for the Lynx. By rights they should be 9:00 x 16's, but the chevrons won out.

I had our local tire shop mount the tires for me, they're used to odd ball agricultural equipment and claimed that they went on without a whimper. At 30$ per tire I felt it was money well spent.

The new STA's came in at 145 lbs for wheel and tire assembly while the old RF's came in at 220 lbs per set, for a weight reduction of 300 lbs. My back appreciates it.

The stance hasn't changed, but the Lynx now has a rakish look with the larger tires. No interference issues.

Peter
