No, I don't have crappy tires or tire problems, I have four bikes. I buy chains, brake pads, cables, tires, and other wear parts in bulk ahead of time when I run into a good price. I always buy tires in sets of three since the rear wears out at twice the rate of the front.
So the seven tires I have in stock, are a new set of three Conti 4000S for the Ti bike, which will need tires by summer. The other four are Conti 4-Seasons (one 28 and three 25) for the other three bikes, and one that was intended for the Ti bike, but will become a spare for the others. And the cross tires too.
