Michelin Anakee Tires
Written by leroy_cope on 6/30/2010 at 03:50 am

I run 38 psi on the front, the tread pattern on the Wild Flares in my opinion is
the cause of the cupping. I would not recomend the Wild flares.

I've tried the trick Leland posted about higher pressures in the front and it
did stop the cupping. I try to keep the front at 36 psi. Just curious.
