Hi,
I was working a little on the forum website for a local offroad riders group. It wasn't a for-pay gig, just wanted to help the cause. But they showed up a couple of days ago and gave me a pair of Trelleborg Army Special tires for the effort!!! Very cool!! I never even considered billing my time for the job, but it'd probably have come to more than the cost of the tires ... but getting a gift is so much nicer and better. I also love the new-tire smell.
To share the fun, here's a picture of a friend trying knobby tires for the first time:[attachment=0

I wanted to confirm my thoughts - the sizes are fine for 'Berg rims, right? 100/90 front and 130/80 rear. Also specced as 3.5" front, 4.5" rear. As in these dimensions make essentially NO difference to the 90/90 front and 140/80 rear that's stock on the 570, right?
Thanks!
