Cheng Shin C183A 2.75-17 Rear Tire

Several years ago when I bought my trike,

it had a new one of these on the front.

Now to due to age and uneven wear on the

right side of the tire, I definitely need a new front tire.

Should I throw another one of these on or

should I buy something a bit better?



Since money is an issue, cheaper would be better
The tire will also die of old age before being worn out.

I have heard of people using that brand but using a rear tire that size on the front..I thought I remember J.C. whittney sold them...

Don't cheap out on a tire - your life is worth a couple of extra bucks.

very true statement about cheap.
But spending several hundred dollars
on tires is not an option right now.

Open to suggestions on tires also.

My worst dealings with Cheng Shin Tires (...this is on 2-Wheelers) were because of the really hard rubber compounds. Yep, great mileage, but could always easily push the tire out (slide it) on rainy days, and/or slick, greasy roads in summer. Usually "nightmarish" on Tar Snakes.....ThumbUp
