Default michelin pilot tires

well ive been told that the pilot series is the best street tire made right now.

when looking online for prices ive come across several different trims of the pilots though, and im not sure which one would best suit my needs.

if neone knows the difference between the different types, or better yet, who has the best prices on them, thatd be great. thx.

you want the pilot powers. do a search, and you'll find all the info on them you need. i loved them when i had them, and it seems that the general consesus from what i've heard is that they're the best street tire.

i recomend buying from cycle gear .. i think i paid $140 for the rear and $110 for the front .. and mount/balance was $10 i believe, per wheel ... and get their motoguard for $12, which will replace your tire for free if you get a nail or anything like that in the first quarter of the tread, and after that it's prorated. i was SO happy i got it when i bought my Pilot Powers, as i got a nail in the rear two days later.

I got the Pilot powers on and really like em. Feels like you have more confidence when riding in em cause the tires grips so good.
