Tyres
 
4 Attachment(s)
Hi all,

I have for sale the following...

Pair of Michelin Power Ones in 120/70 (A) & 160/60 (B)
These were used for most of 1 trackday, as a trial, but I didn't get on with them very well, so sticking to Pirellis...
£100

A 160 Pirelli Diablo Rain tyre, been used but still good for a trackday or two...
£60

Collection from Kent (I'm near Maidstone), only I'm afraid. Sorry, but posting these would be a bit of a pickle! :D

Thanks.

Hey there,
I race an SV myself and I'm very interested to hear your thoughts on these tyres....what was good and what was bad compared to the Demons ?

Hi dude,

I found the Michelins to be 'very hard' if you like, they just didn't fill me with confidence. I couldn't really tell what was going on with them. Even as I was fitting them they didn't seem as pliable as the Supercorsas. I wouldn't go as far to say don't use them! Lots of people do, with good results, as I'm sure you are aware. Just a personal thing I guess...

HTH.

The Pirelli wet is superb though, in my opinion! :D

Thanks for that...I run with Avon VP2's and I like them very much myself.
Pretty much everyone here goes with the Pirellis but I find the Avons just as good at about 2/3's the price.
