Anyone running Dunlop SP5000

cocheese72 · 09-10-2010, 01:21 PM

This tire is coming in today. The pics online do not show a directional arrow on the side. I assume these can be mounted either way, is this correct? It is symetrical.

And which dot Red (uniformity) or Yellow (weight) did you match up with the valve stem?

**Cajunrider** · 09-10-2010, 01:29 PM

I'm running the SP 5000 symetrical. It isn't directional and I'm pretty sure the yellow dot lines up with the valve stem. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Good luck with your tire. It is a good one.

I also have the SP5000 symmetrical, and the yellow dot aligns with the valve stem. The tire is non-directional.

Naw Dick, that don't count. You can't be in the SP5000 club.

I still need to get back down to the cabin and Wolf Pen Run before years end. Where did you get the darkside sticker?

+1 Great DS tire!

I see that it doesn't count if a guy "used" to have one.

What if a guy "wants" one? Does that count?
