I have used the Ofna wheels and the offset ones that you linked to should be fine on a savage for both fit and durability. I have never had the Proline RoadRage tires, but I have also never heard anyone that did have them and liked them. I hear they are rather slippery and dont have very good traction. Of course, this also probably means that they dont wear very quickly cuz the rubber is on the hard side.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly

That doesn't sound good about the traction. Anyone know of any other max sized street tires.

Problem with these is that they are 40 series and low profile. I am going to be jumping and bashing in a skate park with these and I want as much give as possible. There has to be some other maxx size tyres that are good for on road use.
