tyres that go together.........
« on: 21 April 2013, 02:18:33 pm »
shlapped the angel on the front with a diablo strada on the rear (don't want to wear the new angel out before the rome trip).
took her out for a 'bimble' this morning and found myself dragging my knee/peg around my fave roundabout :eek
it does make me wonder if we use our tyres to anywhere near their limit.....which is a good thing really, i like a safety margin.
anyway, it would seem that pirelli road tyres can be mixed and matched without too many problems!

Personally I've never had problems mixing tyres, although now I tend to only mix different model types within the same brand ie Michelin PR3 rear pilot power 2 front (although this was on T,cat and Gixxer 750)
Haven't looked into what decent tyre there is these days for the fazer 110 front.

Btw I got 16000 miles out of the rear on the Gixxer and I didn't hang about on that, cracking tyre IMO!
