Do you have any pics of your bike with the tires mounted? I have a 2016 D'S 8.3 and in need of new tread for it.

They also lifted the overall height of the bike a good inch or so which I like. I'm happy I went with the 17.5" and not the 19" model! I'll post a couple pics tonight after work when i get it out in the sun. I always thought the DS line looked kind of wimpy with those tiny skinny tires on a MTB frame and fork. Now it looks like a beast from hell that will kill your whole family!
