 |
|
Find I'll soon be in need of a new rear tyre. So thinking about getting the pair replaced (subject to cost).
I wondered where the best/cheapest place to source these?
I came across an on-line place www.tyresalesuk.co.uk but by the time I've added on postage the dealer in town quote is cheaper (ok, I admit, only by a few pence or pounds depending on the tyre make, but possibly more convenient).
I did do a search of BCF but had too much to wade through. If this was covered in an earlier thread please post the link.
Any help appreciated. ____________________ ...and the whirlwind is in the thorn trees, it's hard for thee to kick against the pricks...

I found some good pair deals at: https://www.edgemx.co.uk/index.html
Depends what you're riding... I prefer Michelin's Pilot Powers on my '04 R1. Excellent grip, wet or dry...!
AVOID D208's...  |

eh?
i love my 208 std on the rear of the 'ace.. fitted it and scrubbed it in at Cadwell a couple of weeks ago..
make sure it's the std, and not the S tho, as the S doesnt have tread all the way to the edge, and gets slippy in the wet
