Great choice. Those are the tires I used last season. They were wonderful.

I am still waiting on the 2022. It is currently scheduled to be produced during week 45, which is November 8. Fingers crossed!

I’ll have these mounted onto my black optic wheels as soon as they arrive. Then I’ll probably have them switched out with my current wheel/tire combo in November. How do you gents store your spring/ summer wheels ?

in the garage, flat on the sidewall. I read a few articles that say it is best to store flat. They also recommend putting them in bags when tires are dry, helps to prevent off gassing during storage and prevent dry rot on tire. don't store where water can get inside tire.

Got it, I only use 1/3 of my garage so I can easily store them flat and well away from water.

Let us know how they work out once you get some Winter and/or snow miles on them. I'll probably be looking to buy something similar, but might be waiting until next year.

Regards,
Bob
