yes, the product name for the 88 tire is the "four tire" you know how 88 like giving products numbers insted of names
88 only go pop when people like teejay fill them to 150psi
i had one that blew out on the rim, but that was at 130psi, you just cant run them above the suggested max
12:26 pm
we call them ares 88 tires or just 88 tires
you aussies have a different way to talk
and say shioot
so thats cool
heya if you can't blow up a tires at 120 psi
they not worth putting on the rim
i can roll nor spin anything less than
120 psi and they blow at that level
so watch yourselfs and your ear drums
i could hear for two days because of 88
tires
dont like them

Shane has blown out so many 88 tires its not funny and he only runs 120psi. If a tire blows out at only 10psi over limit, it isnt a good tire. Besides, the highest rated tire ive ever known is 120psi. Companies know that flatlanders run higher than that, so it isnt really an issue when it comes to getting those few extra pounds.
Shane's switching to Chase tires once hes used up his stock pile of 88's anyway.
You can run tire above what they say on the side wall. I used to run 50psi tires at 90psi back in the day when it was close to impossible to get high pressure tires.
And do you seriously think Pat is gonna put "These tires blow out a lot" on his site?

I think the type of rims have something to do with how much pressure you can run too.
Some rims just don't hold the edge of the tyre as well.

Tina you silly little boy, were all saying how 88's blow out a lot, yet you still want to go out and buy them over CHASE's Frequency G's, which by the way everyone is raving about.
GET CHASE TIRES!!!

i want grippy tyres, like khe lamello or primo wall
1:15 pm
i dont think marcus is stupid
he just does not know
chase tires are grippy
they are lighter than walls by far
and they dont blow out
and they wear down alot slower
than walls and ares tires
shane was telling me some stories about 88 tires
as you know i write back and forth to him
and yeah hes going to try to get some odyssey
tires thru that distributor as if i shipped
them they would be like 50.00 to ship to aussieland
and thats almost the cost of 4 tires to buy here.
marcus i would really check into the chase tires
mate and your really like them alot

FUCK PRIMO... fukers blew out... 88s are decent and the oddy g is perfefct so far... i used to run primo and trust me tina those other brands suk ass... sounds like a goer for you get the 88s if there convinent but dont go crazy with the psi... keep under 120 and you should be fine... if you gonna run 120 or higher dont trust many tyres... i usually run around 100-120psi and im doing fine with the 88 and oddyg... goodluck...

its the way we do things here
add an "ie" or "y" to the end of everything
so smith becomes smithy and sam becomes sammie
we also add "er" on the end of stuff, like maccer, twanger and wozer
