Are Bridgestone BT45's not available in the US (for original FJ wheel & tyre sizes), or does everyone go for radial tyres on the original wheels ?

I had them on until I changed my wheels for the FZR front and 17" rear. Always seemed like decent tyres.

They are but I think most people are trying to get away from the bias ply tires and put on a radial tire for better handling.

Also, Rick your nails look spectacular glittery.  :rofl2:
