Have heard reasonably good reviews of the Goodride. Checked out tyreshoponline.co.nz?

There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
Hey @gadgetman , in all honesty I have never really had much to do with the Goodride product , cant stand the supplier and told them to shove it up their ass , cheap tyre but that's a bloody cheap price , I tend to stick to more reputable brands that I know and have run myself....after all tyres are the only thing keeping you on the road and when things turn dicey I want to have complete confidence in the rubber.
Some of the other expensive brands that have been mentioned I have my doubts in at times if they really are viable on a cost per k basis.
Whatever you do you cant go past a light truck construction (10ply) as that's where a lot of the mileage comes from and are a lot tougher to deflect a lot of the annoying punctures! Just don't go running high pressure as they can then handle like a walrus on the beach!!
hope this helps someone![]()
I was filling the tyres on my push bike on the way to work one day and waited for a guy to pump up the big droney mud tyres tyres on his sparkling clean 4wd (Prado or Pajero-I can remember which) A fairly new one too by the look of it. When he hung the hose up so I could use it it was set at 65 psi. I wound it down to 30 for my MTB and said Hi and commented something like " Are you sure you want 65 in there? Thats fairly high isn't it?" thinking maybe he had not noticed....He basically told me to "F__K off and mind my own business ewhat would a dumb cyclist know" I didn't pursue it any further but the big droney MTs that I have recommend much lower pressures and the ride is far more comfortable at around 30 psi.(drop it to around 15 to 20 when in the soft stuff...) All I could think was "bloody dick head doesn't have a clue- He can go F__K his $1000 set of tyres if he wants to...." And I suspect he probably did as they looked like they were runnung on about the centre 2 inches of tyre...

Hahahaha what a cock sucker , it would handle like a bag of dicks and smash the shit out of the crown of the tyre....old mate must have read the sidewall where it says a max of 65 odd psi and took that as gospel as to what he should be running , amazes me how many people do that and ALOT of them are blokes.
Bet he's also one of those fellas that only drives on the odd bit of gravel so he thinks he needs muds!
Bet you rode away having the last laugh![]()
