Kosmo Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 sportbiketrackgear.com aka STG has Michelin Pilot Powers shipped for $247 a set. STG....cheap tires.....come on dude ??? where......????? that's misleading....they say it's 246.95 a set any combo....choose a pair of pilot power, it won't be less than 285/290.....check your check out basket.....after you choose.....

siggywiggy Posted April 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 i just bought another dunlop qualifier for $124 shipped. I really like the tire. I was just a little harder on it than i should have been. I guess that is what happens when you first get the bike, and realize that if you do clutch up wheelies every time you go out it will burn the tire right off.Thanks for all the advice though....i may try a shinko out one of these days. It just seems that the shinko line is the opening price point for the tire market, so was a little weary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagr Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Just got a set of Michelin dual compounds for my Z. I haven't mounted them yet. But I like the idea and have read good things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siggywiggy Posted April 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 i was looking at the dual compound. sounds like a good concept for optimum wear and grip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagr Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Yeah. I can justify the price if they last like people say. I got a set (front/back) shipped for $340. Rear is a 190 so it's a tad higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
