Re: Needing new tyres
pilot power 2cts i run and they are f****ing awsome, had 2k out of the rear so far still got another 500 miles + left in them, failing that the pilot road 2s my bro was running them on his blad and had 4.5 k out of the rear and 3 track days, exspensive tyres but well worth the money

Re: Needing new tyres
Are you just wanting the rubber, or are you wanting them fitted to the wheel? or are you wanting them installed on the bike?
If your just wanting the rubber then see if spanner man can sort you out with a pair of Maxxis Supermaxx Radial had a set on for just over a month now and couldnt be happier hoenstly belive you wont get a better set of tyres for less than £150 Mine were £130 fitted to the wheels.
