Tyres for zx9r
« on: July 11, 2008, 02:25:27 PM »
Hi folks i am looking for a new set of tyres for my zx9 but there's are so many out there  i don't know whats best. I currently have Michelin pilot sports but don't seem to much mileage out of them, i don't do track days so would like some advise on which is best for general commuting up and down the motorway.  Thanks   ;D

after getting 900 miles out of a read dunlop qualifier i went for cheap pilot sports, 135 quid a set and they are very good, i though they would be pants but i've done 1500 miles on them and cant fault them

Thanks for your reply , i have tried the pilot sports but they seem to square off quite quickly as i do allot off motorway miles.
