Default Re: Pilot Road 4

PR4's were first proper tyres after the OEM Dunlops on my Gladius. Now replaced the rear after 8822 miles and the front has 2.5 mm thread depth left. I used PR3 on my CBR600F in the past which gave me similar mileage but far less even wear, and the feel got looser with wear. My 72 mile commute is about 1/3 twisty B-roads and 2/3 motorway and squaring has never been really a problem. Feel on the edge on dry is much more solid on PR4, probably due to solid edge pattern, which doesn't bother me as I wouldn't get it down on wet anyway. I haven't had anything negative to say about the PR4 - until now - the new rear took 50 grams to balance! It feels well round and vibration free now so perhaps it is OK anyway.
