Kim, I agree totally with your comments on the "Max inflation of 44 psi" being a "Negative" issue for the Duelers. The other specs on the tire are so good that I recommend them as meeting "Minimum Requirements" but I would be really interested in a Tire Review from you after you get some miles on them. Like you, I'd prefer to see a "Max inflation of 50 psi" Minimum .. on a Westy. good road, good adventure, larry chase roadhaus.com - - - Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2005 11:13:26 -0400 From: Kim Brennan kimbrennan@MAC.COM> Subject: Tires (oh, yes) First, the Duelers only have a Max inflation of 44 psi. That's a negative in my book. Still they are a load index 100, and are light truck tires with a max load of 1700 pounds, so they should be good enough. |
