I traded the Grim Reapers for a set of Carlisle Black Rocks on OE wheels.

I've been looking forward to these tires because I liked my Carlisle ACTs soo much and the tread pattern on these
Black Rocks are very similar.

I'm going to enjoy the OE wheels because I'm not going to get nearly as much crapp flipped up on me.

Looking forward to putting some miles on them.

those hand guards sure look nice

Should like them. All my friends from Kentucky love them. Waiting on my quote from the local tire dealer.

They look like they should do OK. I'm going to try and put some miles on them today.

rubiranch,

Your ride looks very beefy with those Black Rocks on. let us know your thoughts after you get some miles on them. I have a friend in PA that has them on his Honda. He likes them very much for his terrain.

Here is a link to our internet pricing on them.

That right there is a huge part of buying tires. Most folks feel they need the very most aggressive tires there are and that's just not always the case.

thanks and I'll keep you posted

Nice! Post up some pics! Did you just buy tires or wheels too?

a_tack · 02-07-2012, 06:40 PM

Rubi, those black rocks are good looking tires. and they are LIGHT!

chrisb · 02-07-2012, 07:08 PM

tskfreak hooked me up with his wheels which are like new, so I just got the tires. I like the way wheels look but I would destroy them anyway so stockers are fine for me.
