    I purchased a set of GPA's at Roebling and paid around $360. I bought another set at Tally and it ramekins me $408. Sterling told me the price of rubber went up so their prices had to as well. Anyone receive an email that I may have missed that may have been explained this before purchasing beforehand? So far the competitors aren't raising theirs, and being blindsided by an additional 10% sucks.

    My PU rep told me a while ago that all brands of tires were going to be going up in the spring. Cost of materials has gone up supposedly.

    Someone has to pay for those pre-qualifier tires they're supplying to the MA superbikes.

    Or saving for a quiet compressor. No wonder why they put it 30 ft away from their trailer

    Is this VFR52's secret for winning without tire warmers, and tires lasting for over 1/2 a season?

    Went to buy a Dunlop tire for my cruiser tire today from the local dealer. The Dunlop sign by the tire said made in US, right? But when I looked on the sidewall of the tire it said made in Ind0nesia? I thought there stuff was made in Buffalo? :eek:.
