I have 6 new BFG R1's in my garage, waiting for Meridian. They have not been heat cycled yet. When I ordered them, I was not counting on all the ice (and accompanying road treatments) we'd have in PA

I wouldn't worry about the road salt & such. As I understand it, 100 miles is just a guestimate anyway. What you really want to do is to get the tires up to operating temperature gradually. The way

Actually its really easy and controllable. I think its a lot more scary on transitions, but steady state circles were totally fine. Uh, "wasted" meant "Don't stick nearly as good as new and are thus

If you can find a small dry parking lot in your area run 75 foot circles for 1 minute in both directions at near limit. then get them off the car. Not only will this suffice for heat cycling it will

Are you driving or trailering to Meridian? If you're driving, just pull off about 100 miles before you get there and put on the R1s for the rest of the journey!!! If you're trailering, well, that's y

I cycled mine last year in fairly cool spring Wisconsin weather. Maybe 40 to 45 degrees. It will take longer to get heat into them on a cold day, but I think you can do it. I did basically a 20 mile

How funny! I had *just* responded to a private post about this very same issue. Maybe I could just use one of the university lots we usually use for autocrossing... Really, officer, I'm not doing dou
