TOPIC: Shinko 011 Front & back tires
Shinko 011 Front & back tires 1 year 3 months ago #1
 Just ordered the Shinko O11 Front & back tires.. Front is 120-70zr18.. Back is the all new just released 200-50/18.. Both rated @ 168mph..Paid $229.00 delivered to my door from smalltires.com.. Great prices & customer service and if you ask nicely you can get a 10 dollar discount to help with shipping.. I'll post up what I think of the combo when I get them installed.. I've ran this front tire b4 and it's a great tire & long lasting.. I'll post pics & i'll post up video when I retire my 180 shinko..  |

Good deal Q.....I may be changing back to a 200 if those tires are any good. I'm sure you'll give them a good test.  |

I say go for it.. Smalltires.com has the 240 Shinko @ $150+.. I've never used it, but luv the look of a 240 A$$ end.. What I don't like about it is the -7 HP u get from it & the slower handling in turns.. U sure u want to go with rim Hirevn?
Mark, u know I'll put them to the test.. I'm thinking the new 200 will be a GREAT tire.. I need to kill my old tire & put it in retirement..  |

Yes, please keep us posted on this Qtip!
The Shinko's are certainly priced well and that is important these days! I have purchased tires from Small Tires and also found them very easy to deal with.... good call! |

Im not much of a corner carver and will be running it at the drags some while the car is in cool down between rounds. Also going to build it as sort of a show bike for the local stuff here so want the wide tire. The big bike show in Anchorage is like the first weekend in April so got some work cut out for me over the next month or so. Today is going to be a good day- Pics to come in a few hours!  |
