Pirelli MT65 I always liked, discontinued so good luck finding them.

Errr normal small bike tyres? Pilot Sportys or Metz ME22's? I like the profile on the ME22. The rxs will get some at some point.

Dunlop K82s probably go up to 19", they're good.

To be honest though, anything from a known manufacturer will be pretty good. Modern tyre technology doesn't matter to those of us running narrow crossplies on old bikes, but a lot of the cheap Chinese tyres are still crap in the wet.

Nice to hear, at the moment its Cheng Shin and Golden Boy two lovely pieces of plastic of the square persuasion.

I was in a bike shop next to a stack of new tyres when I saw the ME22's, "Oh thats quite a curved profile for such a skinny tyre...."... "hmmm 2.75x18, 3.00x18 - that sounds familiar....."

Ok.. its either gotta be a Dunlop k81 front and rear

Or a Metzeler ME11 Front and ME77 Rear..

Anyone have any opinions of which are better? Around the same price too

3.60 inches is 90mm so that would be 90 wide
4.10 inches is 100mm so that be 100 wide.

thats roughly so check they fit first.

That would make sense..... BUT.... tyres are nominal sizes so applying logic doesnt work Confused

Off a manufacturers site so should be accurate.
