Dunno Allan,

Reading the other comments here makes me wonder, but I've had Titan's come on new gear, and some old Armstrong's, and not one ever impressed me very much. They do pull pretty good, and I can't say that they wore badly either, but they've all had the most pi$s poor casings I've ever seen. They either rot out or simply blow out, before they wear out. They're just a cheap tire, through and through. Like I said, I've run them because they came on the machine, but I'd never buy a set. I guess if they work for ya, that's all that matters. Now as far as I know, Titan bought GoodYear's farm tire division there a year or 2 ago. I don't know quite how those two product lines came together at this point. I spose if the put the GoodYear casing under the Titan bars they might come close to making a tire. However, for my money I'll stick to Firestone, Michelin, or BFG. Galaxy/Primex is also a farily decent low price tire. I'd say for what you get, they're probably one of the better entry level bias tires. They never caused me any trouble, but they do wear a bit quicker that a Firestone.... but they cost less. That would be my pick for a cheapie.
