Author Topic: Tire ? BLUE00 New Member Member # 2074 posted                    I have a 2000 Firehawk with 275 40 17 rubber. How long do they last? Not miles - time In 3 1/2 years only 7000 miles. I've been told I could get 20,000 + miles on them - that could take 12 years! Anyone know the time limit on tires.

I would not run them after 5 years for sure. aks for keRm - he'll give you the scoop! Posts: 5558 | From: Windsor, Ontario. Canada | Registered: Feb 2000  |  IP: Logged
