Favorite tire spot
#1
Hi all, long time.

I know there's a few threads about where to get best tire buys online, but I am wondering what anyone is using recently. I'd like to stay away from Amazon, preferably a place that takes PayPal. The tires I'm looking for are old style Schwinn sized, 27" 1-1/8, I think. Thanks in advance.

I can specifically recommend these as durable:

which are made by Kenda; they have wire beads with Aramid belts under the tread.

Who ever has the best deal on the tire I need. P.s. Welcome back stranger!
