FYI Motosport.com has some great deals on tires with free 3 day shipping.

I just ordered a brand new model, Dunlop Sportmax Q3, so I know they won't be old stock, got the free 3 day shipping and until the end of the month Dunlop has a mail in rebate of $40.

That makes this set of designed and made in America tires only $20 more than a set of Shinko Verge tires....

Have Sportmax Qualifiers on the S1, Q2's radically transformed the handling of my X1 (better), and Q3's fixed the handling of my (T595). Only problem is that the 170 size that is ideal for the 5" tuber wheel is not available in the Q3 yet.

I run a 180 on a PM wheel...
I never even noticed that they don't have a 170 yet - lol.....

Hi...I need a new rear tire on my 95 S2, which has PM wheels and carries a 180/55 rear. Wondering if anyone has used Pirelli's Angel GT...? Thanks

I've got the angels...only put a few miles on them right now, but they are nice.

Mileage is most important to me and I have heard the angels are great for it.

I ran Q2s last set and only get 3500 miles out of the rear, same with the diablo supersports before that.

I have also had good experience with the cont road attacks

Q3's are supposed to last longer (we'll see).
The way I look at it I could of paid 50% more for a tire that lasts 50% longer but has less traction and I'd rather have the traction.
