130/70R18 Frt Tire

I am just checking to see if anyone would happen to have a used, or new at a decent price, front tire that would fit my 1800c. The Dunlop Elite 3 I put on it a year ago this past February is almost worn out. I do not have the funds at this time for a new one. Want to buy a Metzeler when I can. Anyone fairly close to the Killeen/ Ft. Hood area? I would be willing to meet up somewhere.

If you need a new tire at a decent price you could get by with a Shinko.  They are cheap priced but cheap made....meaning they wear out fast, but at least it's new.  could probably get it for around $60-80 and if your brave enough you could probably even mount it yourself

Thanks!! Not really looking for a new tire that I would have to change out soon. I would rather find a good used one, if possible, that might get more that 2000-3000 miles out of it. That's all I have on this Dunlop. And yes, I am brave enough. I put the Dunlop on myself. Was a mechanic for 26 years. Not much I will not try to do myself with the tools I have left. Most of them burnt up in a fire about 5 years ago.
