tonyla Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I have a 2005 1150rt with 12k miles with original tires. They show very little sign of wear except for a flat spot in the center of the tread. This is very minute and can only be felt not seen. I am not a very aggressive rider. Mostly highway. Is this odd or should be happy? thanks tony Link to comment
Bruce H Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Tony, If I got 12K on a set of tires i'd be estatic! I am lucky if I get 6K. I am not agressive either. Do look for the wear bars on your tires. I put a set of 021's on my 03RT, the front is into the bars after 3K miles however the rear is still good. Link to comment

T__ Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I have read about wear bars but have never seen them. I do not see any indicatin on the tires. Tony, they (wear bars) should be there.. Look on the sidewall of the tire & you should see little arrows (not the large rotational arrow).. Where those arrows are you should find the wear bars near the center of the tire or sometimes just off center.. Might not look like much until your tire gets worn enough to get close to the wear bars.. Twisty Link to comment
