Okay, Bub's won't let us run over 2 bills without having either shaved
tires or a manufacturer's written promise that its' tires will live at
speeds in excess of 200. Since I expect there's no way on earth that
Dunlop or Michelin or any of 'em will give me a written statement to
that effect, how do I go about getting tires shaved? Do I take 'em to
the local Bandag retread shop where they take off the old rubber before
retreading my 10R22.5 truck tires? (I didn't think so. . .)
I asked a racer (that runs his bike at speeds well over 200) at Maxton
last weekend, and his response was that the shop that shaves his does
it as a personal favor -- doesn't want to do it, won't do it for money,
doesn't want this piece of business from others.
Any help for me?
