Tire recommendations.

I'm still using just the regular Pilot Powers. I may consider slapping a pr2 on the rear next time 'round. Just popped a new front PP on the hawk today, and I typically go through two rears to every 1 front. Mix of twisty and straight riding, and yes, the wear is usually gone in the center before the sides, although you can't just judge whether the sides are still good or not based on just tread depth alone. Typically, if the center is worn down, the sides have gone through so many heat cycles that they are just as wasted too, just not visibly.

I like the Conti's on the SM.
