tyres help
i know this is a much discussed topic but in short i use the storm for commuting to work on the motorway every day so looking for tyres with good wear life can anybody point me in the right direction, what about maxxis ?
3 main contenders:
Avon Storm ST (AV56) - 7000 miles on mine and still OK, starting to square off now. Also worth it for Avon's free replacement within first 1mm if you get a nail in it or something.
Bridgestone BT021 - good reports from those who've used them. Bridgestone BT014 and BT020 I've used were very good, so the 021 should be too.
Michelin Pilot Road 2 - Riders I know have them on other bikes rate them highly. Michelin claim they are the best wet grip available tested against everything else similar.
Some others might be:
Pirelli Dragon Evo, Metzeler MEZ3, Dunlop 220
At least one user (KarlosVTR) has liked Maxxis.

Voted most likely to be found dead in park bushes following an act of autoerotic asphyxiation.
