Re: Brake drums

Re: Tyre expert..

No, but then 3.50 x 10 is a narrower tyre anyway so less likely to rub. Only time I have experienced rubbing with a 3.50 x 10 tyre was with Schwalbe Racemans that were running at less than 35psi, which is probably why so many people have had issues with Schwalbes and they have since published recomm...
