I'm reading that some people are getting 30-40K miles on a set of trike tires. How many miles are you getting on your trike tires? I had the MPA tire installed in reverse rotation on the front and whatever Roadsmith uses for the rear tires.

Right after I bought my new 06 Champion, I put on a chrome front wheel and a MPA rear tire mounted in reverse to match the chrome back ones.
The tires were wearing very nice at 41psi front, 26 back (25,000 miles on them) but we were going on a long trip, so I decided to put on new front and backs.
I now have almost 20,000 on those and they are still good for many miles to come..

Fred, I blow the tires up myself. It's all that hot air that does it I am sure.__________________________________________________ __________

I've had the 888's on my bike for the last 8,000 miles... and I won't be buying them again.
First of all, if you're use to the OEM Bridgestones and switch to these, BE CAREFUL. Maneuvers...-
