I cant seem to get off the fence about the darkside , my biggest problem seem to be finding a tire I like not to mention one that will fit, is anybody running a directional tire, I saw in a write up that Daniel Meyer did on a good year triple tred assuarance tire on his valk. as always thanks for any help

I run a directional Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R which seems to be available in a good variety of sizes. If you wan to to see the thread pattern, look at the "Darkside" logo at the top of the site.

TennX,

Watch the tires you pic that Valk's or 1800's run.....We cannot run most or close to all the tires they mount on their rims because of our rim width.

Do your homework first and be sure you are telling them, you have a 1300. The Valks and 1800's have a 16" rim also.
