Default Which new tyres?

Been running a set on my street since the AR. very impressed but haven't ridden in very wet conditions yet so that could all change.

Yeah, they're ok. Try the PR3's next time though. You won't regret it.

So good I got my knee down without even thinking or trying to do so. These tyres are awesome. Don't know about mileage, but I don't care even if I have to replace them every year (5000 mile annual commute) they are planted in wet or dry, rather that than as a bonnet mascot for a truck.

You're down to the wear indicator, that's normally a sign! Road legal is 1mm on 3/4 of the breadth of the tyre, but I'm not that brave, a general recommendation would be at 2mm, so looks like it's new tyre time! And just while I have your attention, I love the PR3's as I trust them, but each to their own!

So I've spent the morning reading about the PR 3s which then led me onto the PP 3 which look a better tyre again, I would rather have a set of tyres that I could trust and had confidence in and loose a few miles than the other way round . Comments are all ways appreciated.

You might want to take into consideration the season we're in. Wet performance is what you're likely to want.
