What brands of red wall tires do you trust?
Any advice for maintaining their color and condition?
How do different tread patterns on red wall tires affect performance?
I’ve been riding with red wall tires for over a year now. Their grip is impressive in dry conditions! I did notice that they can get a bit slick in the rain, though. Overall durability is quite good, with minimal wear.
I completely agree with you, Nancy! In the heat, they perform beautifully. However, I wonder if anyone has used them in colder climates? How do they hold up?
I’ve tried them in both warm and cool conditions. They provide decent handling in mild weather but can feel a bit sluggish in wet or cold weather. I think it’s all about how you ride and your local conditions.
I love the aesthetic of red wall tires, but I’ve experienced some tread wear after only a few months of riding. Just something to keep in mind if you’re looking for long-term use.
I’ve had a different experience. My red walls have held up well over a year and a half of consistent riding. Maybe it depends on the model? I ride aggressively, and they’ve performed well.
I think the biggest factor is riding style. If you’re aggressive, you might wear them down faster. I’ve had both good and bad experiences based on how I ride and where I ride.
I must know! I’d love to see how they handle mud. Honestly, if they fall apart after a bit of fun, I’d be disappointed but also laughing at my own poor choice!
I’ve been considering red wall tires for my cruiser. They really pop visually! I’m curious how they look with different color schemes on various models.
Red wall tires can definitely enhance the aesthetic of a motorcycle. However, the performance impact can vary widely based on the tread pattern you choose.
