Yeap I've had fools put them on my rims backwards even though there were obvious arrows on both tire and rim! Of course that motorcycle shop is no longer in business. :) I'm glad to see them go.

I used to resell parts and accessories online but just couldn't make a profit because the distributors would hire kids who were on drugs and they would continually ship me the wrong products more than half the time. Part number on the invoices were correct but the dummies would just grab random parts and throw em in a box without checking anything. I can go on for days about this problem. This was during the good times when the economy was roaring and no one wanted to work. Nowadays people have to take care of their customers a little better and not screw things up so bad. At least this doesn't happen so much these days and people work a little more to keep their customers.

Not white walls but if your looking for new rubber you can't beat it.


Can the tire be use both for the front and the rear? I hope so, because I ordered 2!

He said he will be sending me a replacement Kenda and that I'm to pitch the one I'm holding. The tire came in a bundle just this past May, according to their records. Will give you an update and them a final evaluation when the Kenda arrives.

Received a Kenda universal tire(1 yr. old) replacement for the 20yr old tire I first received. Much better tire, good customer relations, gave them a Positive rating on Ebay.
