Re: wats a good.......

ive been running dunlop d220 sport touring tires on the rear pretty religiously for the last 3 years. no break in time and last forever, perfect mix between enough grip to stay confident but not too much where its hard to do burnouts or drifts. you can easily run 30lbs in it and not have to fight to keep it straight but still rolls into circles real good. its very comparible to the pilot road but doesnt look as funny.

+1 on the qualifier.....good overall tire i switched to pilot power 2ct though cuz the qualifier wasn't aggressive ENOUGH for my street riding. with my stock gearing though it did require warm up.....but then again so does my pilot.

If you want less aggressive get a road or touring tire, but the compound will be different/harder as well as the curve so it'll probably suck.

Re: wats a good.......

i wont use a 2ct in the rear ever again
i use them up front but im gonna switch
whatever J Boogies is using as his front tire im switchin to that, it hooks up in everything...

and as for a rear i've used 2 power 2cts and i run them flat real quick cause they are so soft...thats why i use roads in the rear...longer life, same average angle and compound on michelins are nice...

im looking at the avons and metzlers alot now but i think avon is the better bet if you go that way

I prefer a pirelli but toast 'em too quick to be picky. I get old take offs and tires w/ holes.

Re: wats a good.......

MAXXIS SUPPERMAXX AND CONTINENTAL SPORT ATTACK.

both very similar in grip.

the conti has a taller center profile. the maxxis is more rounded. both great and cheap.
