This must have been asked loads of times b4 so 1 more wont hurt.

My 03 pointy rear tyre needs changing, my bro says dunlop 208's as i only really go out on my bike for a play at the weekends, (pedal to work)

My front is fine but if a pair comes up at a good price il prob do both.

what tyres do people recomend, want something soft-ish only do few thousand miles a year.

Metzler Z6's seem to be well rated and although I haven't changed mine yet I plan to switch to these next.

These get my votes. Great tyres which stick to the road well. Had them for about 800miles now.
Cost me £142 fitted.
