Since it would appear that the week's worth of threads lost may not be coming back, I figured that I'd post this again, since a few people had said that they hopped in on the deal.
I knew I'd be putting on some new tires soon, and I have a set of Anakee Wild tires waiting in the wings. Recently, a friend suggested we hit the BRP this summer (with any luck, this crazy time will be a memory by then). I know that I could use the Anakee's, but why burn them up completely on the road? Scouting for tire deals, I stumbled upon closeout Dunlop Trailsmart tires on Ebay, sold by Chaparral Motorsports. Definitely road-oriented. Per the video they posted, they bought a large amount of tires that Dunlop had in a warehouse, dating from late 2016 to 2017. Not old enough for me to worry in any way, so I bought some. $130 for both. Yes; bias front and radial rear. As I said in the lost thread, if I die, I'll let y'all know.
Anyway, I have no affiliation with Chap Moto, other than buying a few things from them in the past. Just because it's now an issue, I also want to say that FedEx says that my tires will be here tomorrow; shipped from Memphis. So, mine shipped. Stuff changes daily about businesses closing or restricting their actions, so I can't say for sure what would happen if I ordered today. Anyway, here's a link to the Youtube video. There's a link to their site in the video description. ChapMoto
