primo v and dirt monsters old v new

[kev-s]

anyone got og tan dirt or v monsters and the new tan dirt or v monsters? ( i know new 1.75's arent available)

if so can you tell the difference between the old and new ones? are the side walls any different, logo changed at all? any difference atall etc...

ive got og dirt monsters (on the fueler in my sig) and need another set plus a set of v monsters for up and coming builds

now normally id buy era correct, give or take a year or 2 each way

but if the new ones are exactly the same then id rather buy new ones than go through the hassle and expense of finding og ones

i did have a set of new tan wall v monsters but didnt have any og ones to compare to

Kev I have new dirtmknsters ....they still have the light skinwall and red dirtmonster tag...roll really good too

[kev-s]

just had a search on google and can see the dirt monsters have the exact same tag as the og ones

but all the tan wall v monsters dont show the tag

just gone through all my og primos

tan wall dirt monsters 1.95 & 1.75 (fueler)
black wall dirt monsters 2.20 & 1.95  (mk4 holmes)
black wall v monsters 2.1 & 1.95 (zima) the 2.1 is too late for the zima really

Have been running 2.25 V monsters (new) on my ATF, ok, I weigh 14 stone, but don't do anything that will stress a tyre that much, run them at 60-70 psi, both front and rear have loads of small bulges, more like ripples, but i'm assuming its not good as CRC sent me a new pair out straight away, which I moved on, now gone back to my chas and daves, which apparently are shite, but they grip well, and havent got bulges, so go figure?
