do you guys like the tomahawk tires you run?
I got one for doing a show in maryland a month ago and I put it on the rear and the fucking thing would not hook up at all even with like 10psi in it. the only way it would hook up is if I did a seat stander and jumped on the tail hard as I clucthed it. also one of the belts must have been broken cuz the whole bike was wobbling like crazy. even when you skid the rear tire it doesnt sound right
wtf are these tires made of plastic?

I saw on your site your rolling enods on these tires. Doesnt it wash out all the time???

just wanted to know your thoughts cuz from my experience with the one tire I tried tomahawk couldnt pay me 5 thousand dollars to run even a rear tire on my bike. Maybe I am crazy let me know :spin:

as far as the rear tires they are fine, when you put them on put like 5lbs in it and ride around for a little bit, then put a little more , and little more. Sounds like a pain in the ass but they are find for me. I have around 12-15lbs in the rear and it hooks up fine. Im just about to put my orange one on. Yeah and when you lock it up they do squeal really loud,
fronts== dont do stoppies!!!
the black front tire you see in the picture is their sport tire,, it hooks up a little better. We are talking to them now and we are going to see how their race tires hook up.let me know if you have anymore questions,,

i have the same prob. with the rear tires, i cant pull up a spreader from a dead stop i can get it maybe 2 out of 5 attempts, we are tryin to get a little stickier tire but for now you can burnout for ever and never leave a mark.
