First Generation Ascots > The Thumper Years: Stock To Lightly Modified
tires, what do you recommend?
troy_mclure:
i normally buy metzler tires for my bikes.
my daily commute is 40 miles of 65-70mph interstate, 55 miles of 35-65mph country highway, and 5 miles of city traffic.
my current shinkos kinda suck, and i expect to be swapping them in a few months.
what do you guys use?
J6G1Z:
I'm currently running Avon Road Riders & I'm pleased with the performance.
I do not have much experience with other tires other than the old Dunlops that were popular in the late 80's.

IMHO...I like to keep the flat track look and am going to get the Vee Rubber VRM 163's..same size on both ends.

That's a gnarley looking tire! How well does it ride on the street & through the turns?

The look is great but in the link it says the compound is suited to High mileage = slippery?
I chose a similar looking tyre in the Avon Distanzias. got the look but not the grip.
Last a long time and can't wait till they wear out, can't bear to just remove them.
