Shoes for the baby 900

The new one with tilt wheel will need shoes once I get it road worthy. It needs a lot of work.

I have been running Michelin MX4V plus from Costco on my cars. I have been very happy with the tires, the install, the proper torquing, and the nitrogen fill.

Now I am looking for a cheaper tire. I am looking for wet and dry traction and a quiet tire. Mileage is not a factor.

Another factor that is important is road hazard. Costco replaced an almost new $115 tire because a nail was too close to the side wall. This now leads me to the convenience of having a tire store every 10 to 20 miles in any direction and it hurts me to say it is Walmart. They can get any Michelin, Goodyear, Uniroyal and Continental. I can’t go there quite yet.

Back to Costco, they have Michelin, BF Goodrich, Michelin and BF G again.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
