Default Pilot Road 2's 4,500 miles on.

Well I've had my PR2's for a while.

Can't recommend them enough. Remind me of the BT 010's.

Very confidence inspiring and good in the wet.

Been running mine at 34F 36R using a digital pressure gauge.

All those miles have been two up.

The rear has still got maybe 500 miles left in it but we're off for a long weekend so can't afford to chance it, therefore total rear mileage will have to be established on another rear.

REAR


FRONT

Glad it's not only me. Thought I wasn't trying hard enough.

Interestingly the strips front and rear are about the same. Normally there is quite a difference.With my Diablos the fronts were less and on 010's the rear had no chicken strips at all but the front had loads.

That was never the issue.

Thanks for the info - my tyres are in need of a change - they're currently looking like this:

\_/ both F & R!

Had it pretty much narrowed down to PR2's, Z6's or BT021's but couldn't really find anything to separate them.
