fave tyre manufactures
« on: June 30, 2008, 08:46:13 PM »
in light of the latest tyre threads thought it would be a good idea to have a poll up.

michelin all the way for me and id rather not skimp on cost and get the rubber that i have the most trust in.


i run pilot power 2CT for the road and pilot race for the track

my michelins are awesome tyres no doubt

however, my avons did 11000 miles come rain or shine, snow, gravel or mud and they always gripped.

So i cant vote, theyre both my fave  :D

suercorsa pro's for me... racetec's come a very close second.

i couldn't tell the difference before but i can now, the pirelli's are a bit more suited to my riding style  :D
