I have been running on stock tyres untill now, but lets face it, they are not very good! I was about to buy a set of 160/60 + 120/60 Dunlop Qualifiers for £60 (used for one track day before I get them). However I have been offered a lighty used Dunlop Qualifier 120/70 front for FREE. If I go for this front, should I also get a different back? (say a 160/55?) Or just get a 160/60 again for the back? What are the pros and cons of each option?

Doh... just done a search.

Guess I will either stick with the standard sizes OR get the 70 and drop the forks a little bit.
