I would switch it out man. Then keep that one as a spare as it does have some life left in it.

This may be a stupid question but is there a "wear indicator" on the tire itself that tells you when it's time to change. Other than the cords showing through.

(TapRackNGo @ Oct. 01 2006,15:22) Are those sand paper marks covering up those chicken strips? beerchug.gif
It's actually not a bad idea to scrub off the new top layer of rubber. I wouldn't want to be leaning that far over on unscrubbed rubber.

Just like when you get a new tire, ride cautiously until you get it scrubbed in.

(Haelo @ Oct. 02 2006,05:44) 3000 out of the sides and 7000 out of the middle for my first (and last) Battlax.
Damn Haelo, usually it's the exact opposite...more mileage out of the sides than the middle especially in flat land FL.

Are you riding aorund in circles most of the time?
