Post

2 seasons ago bridgestone said they were working on a tire to attract the attention of fans.......and this seems to be the result! a tire that seems to have the same traction and longivity as a normal tire....the only diference....the colour :lol:

Is this for real? Do those tires actually exist? :lol:

Well Bridgestone wanted to introduce coloures tires....just to increase public awareness on the brand!!!So....they might come in one day, but only after their performance is confirmed!

Drat, me again. The link above doesn't work. Try cutting and pasting. Looks as crazy on motorcycles as it does on a car.
