0verboost Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I would not shave the tires for the streets. They make the tires more stickier and go to waste fast. What size tires are you looking for? I might be able to help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwiener2 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 because he is talking about shaving a tire to match the outer diamter of another tire. Not shave the tread off so it has less squish for track use. He's only gonna have about 1/4" or less of tread sahved.
