But the T66 _are_ road tyres. Try to use them off road, and you'll see what
I mean :-)
Actually, I've seen two guys riding quickly with them off road, but they
were very special drivers: One was very good and the other one was very crazy.
It's strange that you got vibrations in the front wheel. Usually, you get
other behaviour when the front wheel is of the wrong type, for example the
bike might be reluctant to lean over into the bend, or it may lean to a
certain point and then "fall" into a bigger lean angle. High speed wobble
is also a symptom indicating that the tyre doesn't match the bike.
Keep sliding
