tmillard Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 I think I am sold on just replacing all four. I guess I need to cut my losses on the old tires and think about the money of replacing differentials and excess wear on other components and safety of the vehicle.

SBT Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 ^This is what I've always done when I know there's potential for mis-match at the wheels. Plus they'll be freshly balanced for the trip too. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank_ster Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 i'm running two different tires front and rear .. and meh ... i wouldn't do the side to side different tires. i would simply go front and back. the speed difference between worn and new tires is nothing to worry about . its less of a problem than running low pressure in one or two tires. Now that's thinking out of the boxer! fyi all 05 + legacy's have built in code reader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... But you ride a Buell so I have to take that into consideration when weighing your advice. Kidding of course... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmillard Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 5k seemed reasonable to me when I bought it in 2009. I never buy things new... Let someone else take the hit and if possible buy at distressed prices. I would think they had similar retail prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
