A Tire Rack-like website for motorcycle tires -

eurospek · 05-03-2008, 11:45 AM

A family friend back home asked us to check out the pricing of motorcycle tires for his 2 bikes and see if it's worth it getting here and shipping. Are there any Tire Rack-like websites for decently priced motorcycles tires?

Thanks!

Thanks for that!!! I will likely be ordering from here. He either wants Dunlop or Metzeler.

Well after converting the prices, he decided to order them and have us ship them back home, and to give you an idea of pricing back home, the cost of 2 tires (with lesser speed ratings) for his bike covered better tires for him and the wife's bike too.

He went with the Dunlop D103 OEM Replacement for his bike and Dunlop D404 Cruiser Tire for her, order total with delivery by Wednesday was $386.96.

Thanks again!!!

I buy a lot of stuff from them. I have a new leather jacket on its way to my house now.

Their customer service is top notch and their prices are pretty good. If you find a cheaper price they will beat it.

I wish i saw this thread earlier. My buddy owns a motorcycle parts shop and could have given you the polak hook up. Still, good price on those.

I know he will start bugging us now for parts. He needed the tires ASAP though, his moto club is going on a trip/cruise to the Alps in early June.

Hey Matt-

If you got tires from them, did they come in shipping boxes or are they shipped like Tire Rack does, simply thrown in the truck with delivery stickers slapped on the tire. I'm wondering if I should start looking for a shipping boxes for these.

I work at harley and i know when we ship tires we either use boxes or tons of seran wrap. Never ship just with a sticker.

What's his last name? I went to high school with a Jacub or Jacob nicknamed Kuba... might be many of them but I'm just curious
