This will be the first time ive had to get a new rear tyre.
At the moment its a Metzeler ME Z1 150/60 17.
Now i know this is quite a soft tyre, what would be a good compromise between grip and mileage ?
And is it ok to keep the ME Z1 on the front while putting a different tyre on the back ?

I can recommend the Sportec M1's, good alrounder. Check with the fitter as to whether it is ok to mix the two.

Best *all* rounder is an Avon Azaro II.
