I don't see Macadams, Avon Roadrunners, Pirelli Phantoms....meh what sort of a tyre comparo is this
So I guess I have to settle for Power 2 CT's for the road and Dunlop GP thingo's for the track

Sorry, cannot vote on the grounds that i have not tried every tyre that is on the list. Actually haven't had any experiance with many of them at all.

I voted pilot power because I am yet to try a SuperCorse rear...
I currently have a BT016 rear and a Supercorse front... I find the BT016 front wears out way to friggin quickly...

Can we have a poll for the worst tyre ever used??? If so, I'm voting for Bridgie 002 (Street) and the Conti Sports as two of THE WORST!!!!
Best road tyre for a balance of grip, life, steering and handling is the PR2's! At the track, it's a different story...but on the road, I havn't used anything better to date.
I can't wait till tyre technology gets to the point where we can have Moto GP levels of wet and dry grip.........AND they last 60,000 klms like my forby tyres do!!!!

If that's what you're after skip right past the Macadam and can I suggest ........ the Hi Sport

...if you can't get a Pirelli Phantom (silver dot of course)
...and for Hoffs benefit...I actually had Macadams on my GSXR1100 before going to the "race oriented" Hi Sports

ahhhh the good old days of 18" tyres
