About This Site
We would like this website to be by the people and for the people. This means we want to hear from you. Your most important contribution is sharing your tire experiences with others.
If tires work well we need to get the word out. If tires don't work well we need to know that too. Tires that don't suit your riding style can be anywhere from annoying to downright dangerous.
Enter as much or as little information as you want. If you don't have experience with, or care to comment on, a particular topic please don't feel pressured to respond. Just provide whatever information you feel comfortable with.
Regarding this site, let us know what is working and not. What new features you would like to see. If there are new tires out there and we don’t have them on the site, let us know. If there are good articles/reviews we can link to let us know that as well.
