Michelin M45's
« on: April 07, 2015, 05:56:36 AM »
With the warmer weather arriving I decided to start fitting my new Michelin M45 tires which I've had stored all winter.  For anyone thinking of using this tire I can tell you they are an absolute breeze to fit. The beads are thinner than some I've fitted in the past so dropped into the very narrow well on the front rims and that makes all the difference. Once mounted they seated easily by 40 PSI.

Did you go with 3.25 x 18 on the rear?

I hope you get lots of fun miles from them.
