Just a hint. Maybe you could have solicited a few more responses if you had been a little more specific in your question. Perhaps some details, as to what bike you ride, what tyre sizes it runs, what sort of riding you do, might just give some people something to go on! :wink:

depends on what sort of riding as strika mentioned earlier.

i like the M3 Metzlers, BUT they wont be that cheap and prolly wont last as long as the shinko's.

but thats like saying a falcon XT is cheaper than a fairmont ghia.........your not comparing apples with apples IMHO.

come for a ride with us one sunday (not this sunday - i'll be at winton) but next sunday we'll be going - have a look at some of the tyres my mates use, have a talk and make up your mind from there. (BTW alot of then also have m3's)

tyres are a VERY personal thing, its a feel thing :wink:

Soft but cheap was general opinion

Just because you CAN ride, doesn't mean you SHOULD
