No, Its not their croisants Im talking about, it's their pilot Road 2ct's, this one has done a massive 10,000k's !! :kuda:

I have never had another tyre last so well, and grip well until the near death of the tyre, recommended !! :kuda:

Next trial BT016's :twisted:

i wouldnt bother with the 016's.

Blurrs 016's were lasting better than my M3's when we went to the island. (but not by much)

there's still plenty of meat left on those PR2's dude/

2ct's are my next tyre of choice... nothing but positive comments heard from all.

+1000000% on these tyres - I jagged about 12000km on the rear of the MFP12, which is *double* the life of other tyres with similiar grip.

I will still try a set of Roadsmarts next time around though, just to see what they are like.....

Don't bother Gos! I tried a set and shagged them in 5K! I get 8-9K out of the rear PR2's! The Dunlops, like most Dunlops I've used, have great feedback and feel, but I am out to pasture on if they have as much edge grip as the PR2's??? The probably handle sharp bumps better than the PR2's, but that's the only advantage I could pick between the two tyres. Stick with the PR2's until someone brings something better to the table Gos! Otherwise, you'll be replacing it down at the Island before you turn around to head home after the GP in Oct!!!! :lol:

There are really only two questions in life. 1.Which way do i go? 2.What is the lap record?
