TQ70 tires, corkscrew or pyramid spikes

Post by flipwils11 »

Were the associated TQ20 tires available both as the pyramid spike design and a "corkscrew" (what the header card says on mine, calls them corkscrew)?

I was expecting the pyramid spikes and wonder if this eBay seller labeled these incorrectly by calling them a TQ20?

The TQ20 is the TR9 Yokomo rear tire, they might be calling it something different, but its the pyramid spike

Not quite sure I get it, so TQ20 tires only have pyramid spikes?

Sorry, meant TQ70, not TQ20. Edited thread subject to correct this.

It doesn't say "corkscrew". It says "Front rim w/screw"
