Wider tyres than standard..whose got them?
#34
Ok, so I bought the 120 fronts 160 rears in the Angel GT's..all I can say is wow..what a difference. Now I dont think its the old vs new tyre wow, but could be a little of that. They just feel more planted ( Apart from my initial slippery start) ..being new an slippery I havnt hammered them yet but have been through the windy bends in the Adelaide hills and they feel amazing..
The guys at the tyre shop were reluctant to put them on and struggled to get them on the rim, but in the end they prevailed..

I took some measurements before (on my old Dunlops) and after of the new Pirelli's and was very surprised at the result....see below
The Pirelli's measured 105mm wide on the front and 150mm on the back?

I am definatley a convert to the Dark side ............
