[QUOTE="AApple, post: 131269, member: 56"] Yeah..putting the front rim on bass-akerds won't werk on mine...the speedo gear, doncha know... :good: (guess you [b]could[/b] take the axle out and swap sides, tho, eh? :builder: ) So...I've got 600 miles on these piggies....the wobble has not improved. I took the mudflap off, and raised the air pressure on both tires, with no change. I've gone back over everything to make sure no fasteners were loose/missing. The tires are simply too soft(imho). The wobble feel is worse in the evening when the ambient temps are up, and when I get home, the tires are really hot to the touch. I'll be lowering the air pressures back down to the recommended pressures this evening. Guess I'm just stuck with it the way it is. :crying: I did ride in some rain the other day, dint have any traction issues, so that's a plus, and the ride is nice enough. If these things will WEAR well, and not be out of tread in a month or two, I'll be otay....I guess.... I just had a thought....scary, I know....the noise I hear, which I already described as sounding like velcro.....I think I figured that out just now. It is the tread of the tires creating a suction on the road surface, and then "popping" loose(like a suction cup) as the tire turns. :good: :clapping: :smilie_happy: :Doh2: :smilie_happy: [size=2]Sorry...I'm eating lunch, and the chocolate is goin to me haid....[/size] :doh: [/QUOTE]
