There are a few good reviews on the interwebs.
Check out motorcycle-usa.com & motorcycle.com for a couple.

After running my Q2's a season, there is nothing else to compare it to(sorry this doesn't get you an answer).

I Love how the 160 fits and replicates the 180 tire with nice sidewall. People always ask if it is a 180 and they are astonished when they find out it is a 160. So grippy too!
