I'm used to the direction being down, makes it sound like the engine is snorting a poot when you say it "up draft" that way.

IGNORE THIS SUGGESTION,  I do not think this tire is going to get you past inspection.
Point is that they do exist and they do make a 90 series tire in that 17" rim size.    Makes me think that Kumho mebbe makes the tire for some small car somewhere, then sells it in America as a spare tire with all the specialty markings.

This one looks like a normal tread depth tire, not like a temporary tire at all.    Cost is lower, too (on sale right now).      $80








I do not think you are going to like what is written on the side walls of this particular tire though ........

Huh

When the bath-room tissue got short , I put those "Clear-Rear" things in our bathrooms ...  Smiley ... They are the "Future" , It's a whole new kind of clean !    Cool

.................................

Hay be nice to our moderators , they have the job nobody wants , or asked for , or appreacheates  
...................................



Your right,   But I don't have a cup of coffee , its a glass of ice water.   Grin
............................

Back a few years ago , I was really glad to find out about that Dark Side Rubber !  

That tire sure looks like an interstate running mile eating piece of equipment !   Smiley

A few years ago , I would have tried  it out  .   Now , If there is some Super-Slab running to do ... I've got Marcia going with me and the bike is in the back of the truck getting a ride to the place to take us for a ride !   Grin.  
And
That's OK , I like having Marcia with me.  
........................................

I got used to ridding on the car tire but have to admit that the rim fit lacks a little to be desired.    
Also
The bike tire manufacturers have stepped up their game a little ... it might have been because of seeing that bikers were fed-up with those short-life tries that the manufactures thought was the only game in town. ?   Huh
