 |  Subject: Has anyone used Metzler tires ?  Thu Feb 18, 2010 7:31 pm | |
| Hi,
It is almost time for me to get new tires again and was wondering if anyone has used Metzler tires? I had Hoops that were OEM and am on my 2nd set of Pirelli Diablo's and really like the Diablo's. But I read on the other silverwing forum about someone going from Hoops to Metzler and he really likes them. I think I will put those on next time to see how they handle. But just wanting to know if others have used them? I'm at 28,800 miles now and will change them at 10,000. I'm also going to have the wheel bearings changed too for the first time.

| Hey Jeff,
I remember a member saying something about greasing the beegeebers out of the rear wheel drive splines. Sounds like a good thing to do if you pull the rear wheel for a tire change out. |
