I need a new rear tire

Vettezilla (Impala Balko) · 08-18-2009, 10:43 PM

I need a new rear tire for my gixxer 750, I have michelin pilot powers all around currently so I would like to stick with them. So where is the most inexpensive place to purchase a michelin pilot power in a 180-55 17?

Looks like Sportbike Track Gear is the winner! call and ask for Jason and tell him you're on GIXXERNATION.com he may give you an even better price! Tell him Tilly and Tigger sent you....

Michelin guys can correct me if i'm wrong but I believe that the 2ct has the same profile as the regular pilot with harder rubber in the middle for better mileage... Jason at STG will be able to tell you better than me! He's a great guy and knows his shit very well! I can promise you that he won't steer you wrong either way!!

The 2ct is softer on the sides than the regular Pilots Powers. I don't know about the center though.
