IRC WF920 Wild Flare Rear Tire

I have the original IRC WF 920 tires on my 2006 Suzuki C50t with 16000 miles on them. They are probably good for at least 20000 miles but I will be changing them only because they have some dry rot on the side walls. If anyone has read the reviews regarding the many other tires available and compare them to these tires you know why I will only put these on my bike. I have read where some bike owners have only gotten 8-12000 miles out of a tire. Others say they have a problem with irregularities in the road . Reading the reviews is the best way to find out about any product. If you do you will want these tires also.

Tire fits & looks good. Decent grip though still scuffing in. Limited selection of tires for my '94 Magna & definitely less costly that the Dunlop K555's I've been getting.

I own a '98 Honda Magna and my tire choices are very limited. I wanted to put on a matched set and it seems that the only tires available that will fit both the front and rear of my bike are Metzler Dunlop and IRC Wild Flares. When I bought my bike (used) it had a Dunlop on the rear and a Metzler on the front. The Dunlop didn't wear terribly well and several times I had the rear end try to skate out on me when accelerating out of a turn under moderate power. The Metzler appeared to be holding up very well and felt secure but had an annoying and disconcerting tendency to "nibble" on any little ridges in the road. So my only remaining choice was the IRCs. The price was certainly right the flame tread pattern looks great and from multiple good reviews that I read online I decided to give them a try. I just had them mounted today so I can't rate their durability yet but WOW. HUGE difference. My Magna feels like an entirely different bike. The ride is very noticeably smoother. The front tire doesn't nibble on the ridges and I intentionally tried to get it to do so by crossing back and forth over longitudinal cracks in the road. Even though they haven't been thoroughly scuffed in yet both tires feel very secure on turns and twisty roads. And to top it off Chaparral's service was excellent. I took advantage of their free ground shipping offer and received my tires in exactly one week from the west coast to the east coast. Since normal UPS ground transit time is 5 business days they must have shipped very promptly. Thanks for the great service!

No it's not a premium tire but if you're on a budget it's the right tire for you. Handles good and I haven't had any issues. I was a little concerned buying an inexpensive tire but I am NOT disappointed.
