Tire suggestion

[cbeck1381]

I am looking to upgrade my tires. Any suggestions?

I just bought some Conti Force tires and love em! They have excellent grip and heat up quickly. I got them for about 190 shipped.

What are you running now? and what type of riding do you mostly do?

Add to "woobie", what do you expect out of your tires? (wear, traction, ride quality, load carrying)

Just get the Stradas . Supposedly they last well enough , and everyone seems to RAVE about how they stick compared to some others . I been using them for so long I can't REMEMBER how they fare against the competition .

Worth trying the new Bridgestones BT021, got mine 3 weeks now, well impressed, lots of confidence in wet and dry. no chicken strips either

I don't notice a difference be it wet or dry compared to the Z6s, Mileage though ? I'll let you know in another 10K miles or so .

Avon tires are great also...

Just read a review on tires from a french magazine, they had Conti Road attacks, Metzler Z6's and Avon's but I don't remember the model along with Michelin pilot's. The Metzler just inched out the Conti's by having slightly better wet traction. I have the Conti's on my bike now , but I'll try the Z6's this summer to see which I prefer.

Wow . That'd be at like TWICE the miles of ANY tire I've ever had . Somehow I go through some tires . It's not like I'm that hard on them . And I run what Pirelli actually says I should .
