Strengths:    cheap

Weaknesses:    inconsistant ride, punctured easily

Bottom Line:   
they felt imbalanced and punctured without resistance. I have spent a lot of money on tubes during the use of these tires. But in their defence i am riding iowa's worst streets and during the first of the year when the roads are littered with the most debri. i couldn't aford to ride them any longer. i hope others have better luck.

Strengths:    Price and the ability to run over anything

Weaknesses:    Weighty and noisey. Not a big deal

Bottom Line:   
So I have been rolling on these bad boys for a year now. Been riding in the heat of the summer of Fresno California and the Winter of the Pacific Northwest, they are still going strong. Not sure if I just got really really lucky or if the other reviewers got not so lucky. Have 1500 miles on them and just rotated them. Actually have not been able to find them again.

Strengths:    cheap if you can get them to work

Weaknesses:    unmountable, heavy

Bottom Line:   
These cst czar tires were nearly unmountable . It took me half an hour a broken quick stick tire lever and a lot of grunting to mount one. I never did ride it. I immediately removed it which took another twenty minutes damaged my rim and punctured my tube. I know that there can be some times tight rim and tire combinations but this was beyond the pale and I know how to change a tire. I've contacted CST hoping my pair are just defective and that the entire line are not this bad.

Strengths:    Ummm, let's see, uhhh... well, ...







Weaknesses:    You name it.

Bottom Line:   
These tires are garbage. No advantage in puncture resistance, ride like baby's solid tricycle wheels.

Casing/thread peeled off in +/- 1 inch sections on both tires, in several places. All w/less than 1k miles.

Junk
