    I would have to say those tires are about "as worthless as tits on a bore hog!", (as my redneck friend would say!) HAHA
    They are stupid heavy, lugs too close together for traction in wet terrain and for the price you can find other tires that are 4 times better.

    Thanks all, that is what about I expected to hear and I never liked them either from a looks wise point of view, very stupid, weird tread design if ya ask me.

    They are brand new and on gold 250 R wheels, which is what (THE WHEELS) I'm really after.

    I'm trying to get the guy to take the tires off and just sell me the wheels.

    If not, I'll just keep on looking.

    Why he mounted them on his R wheels is beyond me ?

    I completely agree with ScottZJ... I had these on my tecate when I bought it... 22-11-10.... Pure *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited*... They are an easy way to de-tune your bike... Mine were almost brand new and they did horrrible on anything besides rocks... They are probably durable though... they outa be be for as much as they weigh...

    They are too hard and dont mold to the dirt roads or trails that I have ridden on. My uncle has a pair of those, and they're absolute crap. You should just go for some Ohtsus instead.

    Carlisle TRAIL PRO Facts!

    Available at your local Walmart super center for a price so cheap that the idiot who bought them will replace even a brand new pair of holeshots with them.

    Commonly refered to by the idiot purchaser as the most bad ass tire ever barring wooly boogers.

    They have almost zero traction on every surface known to man, minus something like pine tar.

    The tread pattern is so embarrassingly stupid it makes even Richard Simmons cringe at the sight of them.

    The weight of the tire itself is indistinguishable from the iron wheels commonly found on tractors from the late 1800's.

    The rubber is of such a hard compound they have been known to actually bend nails over before puncturing. In fact, Chuck Norris round house kicked a Trail Pro one time and was rewarded with a broken foot.

    A few years ago I picked wheel ( from a john deere gator maybe) with this tire on. You wrote in this thread what I first thought.

    ...........that's some funny stuff there and I gather you definitly don't like them!

    Anyone else have some nice comments to say ?

    I'm so glad I didn't buy them for the sake of the wheels and then try to resell them. From all the negatives you would be on here if you tried to sell them now!

    BTW..........I just received close up shots of the wheels, they turned out to be crap too !
