    Question: What tire color should I get?

    - Black
    - Blue
    - Red
    - White
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For my Nimbus X I'm going to get a Primo The Wall tire, but I don't know
    which color! Help me decide, please! Here is a pic of the tire colors
    and my uni so you can coordinate them well:

  3. The colored tires are more non marking than the black tire. For non
    marking the white is the best. If you're not going to be riding indoors
    then non marking isn't the biggest concern.

    I think the white generally looks good and it adds contrast to the uni
    compared to the regular black tire.

    I went with a blue theme for my freestyle unicycle just because I had a
    blue Miyata seat. I got a blue Primo tire to match.

  4. I voted black, but only if you coloured your spokes and cranks
    black...now that would be nice!

  10. Red or blue,white would just make it look the same as it was before.ANd
    black is so standerd.

  11. 1.) Look at the tires and the uni
    2.) Pick the combination you like best
    3.) Ignore everyone else

  15. Learn to spin and glide and you'll be wearing out tires so fast that it
    won't matter what the current color is cause you'll be changing it in a
    few months anyways. 🙂

  16. Get blue, it wont show the dirt as much. Don't get red because then you
    would have the same wheelset as me!

  17. John, I already know how to spin and glide! :p Surprisingly I haven't
    had to replace a tire yet, but I do now. Not because it's worn out
    though, it's because it's got a bump in it that makes it ride funny as I
    said in another thread. Anyway, I *think* I've decided on red (sorry
    KC) but I'm not -quite- sure. I still have to find a random $16.95 bill
    laying around before I can buy it... 😄 My parents insist I buy it
    with my own money (BTW I don't have any) even though my dad could give
    $16.95 out of his $175 an hour wage to make a kid happy. Boy am I
    abused.... 😉 I still want votes, though!!!! Vote, slaves, vote (and
    comments would be nice, too)! 😄

  18. What the heck does your dad do to make 175 an hour? Get a red. It looks
    alot cooler.

  20. unipa, I don't get why you say that.

    About my dad, he is a lawyer. O yea, when I say $175, that's how much
    he brings in and such, but he only gets part of it (I dunno how much,
    but I know it's more than half) because he has to give some to the
    secretaries, receptionists, etc.
