My rear went flat at just over 3500 miles. So I went ahead and got a new set. (lemmy.nz)

A buddy of mine let me borrow his XT250 (I don't have a car right now) which was a godsend. It was fun getting the wheels and tires to the shop. I had to make two trips!

I read the title and saw the main picture and thought it said seat. I was really confused how you wore the seat out in 3500 miles, haha. Enjoy the new tires! Keep having fun

Thank you! I am hoping to replace my seat for a little more comfort soon, even if it isn't wore out. If you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong!
