Do I want tread and how much? Do I want high pressure? Slim stuff? How wide do I want to go? What are some tire names and companies to look for?
Thanks-please send me to another thread if there is one-I could'nt find it.
There are hundreds, maybe thousands, of threads on tires. Somewhere. But we usually don't mind chiming in each time a new one pops up. The search function on here doesn't seem to be very good.

I found this article very informative about everything wheel related. Tires are in there somewhere. Can't vouch for the accuracy of any of it.
