Tyres

#1 PostAuthor: Big Fluff » Mon Feb 23, 2015 9:20 am

After the tyres are worn I intend to see what other options I have for fitment to the Saxon but am having trouble finding anything suitable in V rating.
Tyre sizes are:
Front. 110/80 18V
Rear. 130/80 18V
At present I run Pirelli Sport Demons, but whilst I have no issues with them, it would be nice to try another brand.
anyone help?
Thanks Will

I just bought a set if Avon road riders for my ELR which are V rated. It's the second set I've had and they are very good all round. Local tyre fitters quoted me £200 for the set but I bought them much cheaper from here.

Conti Road Attacks are not available in the size I stated.
Bridgestone BT45's are so I may try those.
Also found that Metzeler do the Lasertechs in those sizes too.
