[urq] Tire Recommendation

[Maurits Jonkergouw]

FWIW, I really like the Toyo Proxes T1R, although 225/15, I do not notice any 'tram lining', they are quiet and relatively cheap. The sidewalls are a little soft but you get used to it (I know I did). Just keep them inflated at 2.1 bar and they are very comfortable.
