Very Nice! Thanks for sharing.

Like the tread pattern.

I have a BX2360, so I think the tires would fit my wheels, wouldn't they?

I believe your tires are bigger front and back.....
Tom upsized to BX25-size wheels/tires and put them on his BX1860.

So if I got him right, his wheels/tires are now same as ours...unless R3 wheels different size than R4? I didn't follow his Amazon link to the tire size...my bad.

I don't have an issue with my R4's, and liked your Summit Racing ones too. But do kinda like the different tread pattern....

The only thing that concerns me about these tires, is the inflation value. My OEM tires are 20 PSI, but not certain about the weight load at the 20 PSI. These tires are 1780 lbs @ 10psi . I have found that when I have the max weight in the bucket of my BX22, which is about 400 pounds, that the tires that I replaced the OEM's with, tend to flatten out. They are the same size and plies, but the quality just isn't there. Both the OEM and the replacements are 4 ply.
