BT-016 Tires $225 a set shipped.

003R are the new ones tye.

The 016's are worth it, if they aren't out of date. Which at that price would have me worried.

What are you talking about? BT-002 RS are the newest street tire from Bridgestone according to the website. The BT-003 is a "race" tire and not recommended for street use even though it is DOT. As far as "out of date" goes,the damn BT-016s haven't been out long enough for that to be a concern. I only buy and/or post deals from what I believe to be reputable sources. BTW if you're REALLY worried just call Competition Accessories and have them (or Dennis Kirk) match this deal. I just ordered the BT-002 RS tires for $240 shipped from Competition today using this technique.

Jesus Christ - I'm not trying to poop on your deal finding. I'm trying to let people know that there are shitty dealers out there, and it's VERY easy to get taken when buying tires online.

Hell, there were people HERE in Austin that didn't understand dates on tires and bought old tires from Cycle Gear in person. They were BT016's - which the product number has been out for a few years - you just need to make sure you're getting the NEW compound and not the OLD ones.

The ONLY way to do that is with a date check.

I love you Zoomie! Call me! man,I was just fucking with you,yeesh! Now,I understand that the BT-016 have been out for a few years but as far as a compound change goes...that's the difference between the OEM tires and the aftermarket tires baby cakes. Last I knew the OEM buns cost WAY more than the aftermarket tires. I will admit that I thought you were saying that the tires might be "bad" because of age which would be absurd. Anyway,sorry for teasing you buttercup!
