[QUAD-L] Mushy tires

2012-11-16 Thread Gah17582
I use solid tires on my Storm.  They are like sponges, if I go  out after a 
rain
and come inside I leave tracks and sometimes stains carpet and  vinyl.
 
Any body have similar problem.

Same problem with me. I live in an apartment building and if it's raining or 
snowing I ride up and down the halls to wipe my feet

My new chair is going to have air in the tires, I'm curious to know if I'm 
going to have the same problem or not.
   How many of you guys have air in your tires? How do you have to take care of 
them?

Any tire will get dirt in treads and squeak when wet, depending on the 
flooring, and the medium that lubricated the tire (water, Snow, Slush, ice, 
mud, wet sand, etc.) The firmness of the tire will decrease the amount of crud 
that gets transferred to the floor dependent on the floor type. Wether the tire 
has inserts, air or is a solid core has minimal effect on the amount of crud 
transferred or the volume of the squeaking.

It should be obvious that I have too much time on my hands. On this subject 
there is one axiom that will always be true: 

IF THERE IS DOGGIE POOP I WILL FIND IT WITH MY TIRES. THE POOP WILL ALWAYS BE 
IN THE TIRE WITH THE MOST TREAD. GETTING IT OUT OF THE TIRES WILL BE SOMEONE 
ELSE'S THANKLESS JOB, FOR WHICH I CAN NEVER SAY  SORRY  ENOUGH TIMES.

Stay away from poop my friends.

If you have pronounced treads on your tires... you will gather and retain  
that moisture.

Billy is right. It's Murphy's law for quads. There can be a single piece of gum 
on a football field and my wheel will find it. The hard/softness of the tire 
makes a big difference in the comfort of the ride. Too hard makes your bones 
rattle when you are traveling a rough surface. Tough on the tailbone. I suspect 
avoidance is the only sure way to fix the mud and poo problem.

What happens ti me with my tires is I'll get a sticky substance THEN a tissue 
or napkin will stick to my tire and I'll be riding around with this tissue 
riding around with me. People who see me pretend they don't see it because they 
don't want to unstick it. So, I wait till I get home and find someone to take 
it off and toss it out.
