Re: Which new tyres?
I have just got a set of the new Bridgestone T30's. Very grippy, just ask Mark_h when I went out to scrub them in

Re: Which new tyres?
My D220s lasted for 8500 miles, changed to Roadsmarts 2 - wow, they are great.
Totally different feeling. |

Which new tyres?
Pirelli Angel ST/GT. I have the ST's which are claimed to be good for 10'000 miles. I'll let you know when I get there. The GT's are supposed to be better in every way.

Which new tyres?
It seems like no one really likes the Dunlop's. is that mostly down to how long they last or just the matter of grip and feel they give or don't give??

Don't assume all dunlops are poor though. I had the roadsmart 2's on my SV and they were very very good.

Re: Which new tyres?
Avon Storms are what Rictus uses and he seems happy with them and he does a lot of miles. We got a set put on Chris8886's SV last weekend £262 fitted.
