    Here is a vid of what i was talking about with the sidewall flex.
    1st tyre is the achillies atr sport... im about 80 - 85 KG, im not even pushing hard to make the side wall flex

    at about the 40 sec mark i head over to the Re001,
    When i lean on it with my palm the 2nd time i put all my weight on it ( hence the grunt )

    watch to the end, you can see the best comparison i think.
    yeah its done by feel but its accurate enough.

    and even when its a 195 stretched on a 10 and pumped up to 46 psi i could feel them flex under my butt,
    at least they dont delam.

    I think you missed the point, your comparing a $60 tyre to a $130 tyre, what did you expect. That aside, I absolutely love the Achilles and will continue to run the ATR sport on the rear and will be testing the 123 on the front soon.

    Slowketo, your shit will fit, just might need a lip and slight pull if any.

    Ah there is no "point", just a sidewall comparison. i think you didnt read the whole thread, i was just letting him know what those tyres are link and that is all.
    you like them, i think the side walls are flimsy and shit. they flex like all hell, running them on the front would be the most epic fail in the world! unless your running stupidly high tyres pressures and then thats fail because you are just reducing your contact patch
    tyres must be cheap in your neck of the woods
    cheapest ive got them for is $85 and i brought 20 of them... retail in sydney is $120/tyre for a 15 or 16"

    Yeah, there was a point, you cant throw those two tyres into the same basket, one is renowned and hi performing, and the other is cheaper/Chinese/Indo/budget performer. You get what you pay for.

    Yes, they are cheap, visit Inverse tyres on facebook. Will be about $75 to you I would assume, cheaper if you buy 24, matbe $65ea.
