[QUOTE="Ansimp, post: 130478, member: 2637"] Check the date codes on your new tires so that we can get some indication of a possible faulty batch. If you can't see any obvious problems chase up your supplier and see if they can sort it out for you. The Rats Nest is going great with the new 230 on the rear even with sagged springs in the rear shocks. The only tire issue I have with the 230s is the front howls when I am cornering which I think is just the side block pattern finally getting some use. I want to put a new front on just to see if there is any improvement and I feel like I have had my money's worth out of it. Still plenty of tread left but it doesn't feel as smooth as I would like so possibly the case us a little bit out of shape. I have a new one waiting I just need to have some disposable income to spend on it :( [/QUOTE]
