I have a pair or 4 ply Stones that I'm ready to cut, so I'm curious if any of you "cutters" have an opinion about the best cut for these tires.
Thanks,
Alan

If I recall from the last thread like this, I think the guys on here determined that the 50/50 cut will give you better flex. Not sure there were any other pros or cons to one or the other.

That is what I expected to hear.

Sorry so late, but yes, the 50/50 cut is by far the best. I don't know why anybody ever thought the 60/40 would be any better, IMO it's ruining a good pair of tires. I've seen both perfrom on about the same buggy and the 50/50s hook ten times better.
