Which brand of tires will you trust?

[Allen]

So far i know the reputable brands are Michelin, Bridgestone, Metzeler & Pirelli.

[remmp-it]

for my point of view michellin is the best although its a bit pricey

[Asakura Kai]

Bridgestone battlax ftw!!

[kmax]

shinko... or kenda

[aRcHeR]

golden boy??

[Shockard]

Pirelli diablo supercorsas are pretty awesome on dry roads.

[bluelabel]

Bridge-stone for me as well.

[tempest]

Other than the Bridgestones and Dunlops, I have used only Avon. And my personal experience is that it sucks, skids very easily and traction its unreliable even on a dry day. The rubber too smooth after a few months of use.

Bridgestone FTW !!!

[white_angel]

any brand will suffice for daily riding.

 

do not read overseas forum cos they do 85% track

& 15% being towed on the back of pickups!!

 

locally, most ppl go for branding like its a status thingy but

only a handful will push the tires to its capacity.

 

see the z, x ratings and you'll have a fair idea of

what i'm talking about.

 

compound wise.. c'mon if higher percentage h'way riding

then get a harder compound type.. let's be real, how many

corners do you take per day?????

 

bloody overkill if anyone goes for the "stickiest / tackiest" tires

when the required tire warming hasn't even commenced!!

 

it really boils down to the rider (proper tire warming etc), little to do with tires

IRC and Double Happiness on the track FTW!

[thrasher]

Metzeler m5s on my s4. Gives me

Confidence in the corners, straights and even the rain.

[mild_slevin]

am using pirelli diablo corsa... pretty good profile for turning and braking.

[Constructicon]

Motorcycle = $15K

Tyres (Lasts 15,000km) = $350 1 set

 

Yours truly is an average joe riding a average bike, but never saves on tyres or brakes.

 

Also, its not uncommon to see bikes with almost botak tyres at the bike shop.

Come on...if you have problem paying for such essentials (& not exactly costly, given mileage these stuff last), then probably should not be riding.

[RaidoN]

To me all tyre are the same. Just ride safe and slow in fast out during a corner. Using BT090s btw

[Vonmuck]

Most of the time i am using Michelin, for my car/bike.

My Michelin Anakee 2 costs me $490 for a pair and it dont last as long as the Pilot Sports 2 i used on my previous bikes!

 

Another brand i will consider is Bridgestone.

Always use the best type of tyres suitable for my vehicle and type of riding.

 

They are the only point of contacts keeping you on the road.

Never scrimp on tyres and brake components.

[hideyoshi13]

Metzeler the best... esp in the rain..

got these type of tyres brands? I so noob. @@

[Ananda]

Michelin and Bridgestone are my usual

[revhappy]

Dunlop tt900 is soft compound and good grip, in its price range it is the best for me. This time I tried contnental contitwist sm 130/70 r 17 for my rear tyre, as dunlop doesnt have that size, the compound is very hard. So far so good. But shape very funny, it is bulging in the center, front tyre is dunlop.

[Jehuty]

Bridgestone Battlax, the best ones, grippy.
