How about Dunlop RoadSmarts?

I hate dunlop tires for my car but RoadSmart is getting lots of good reviews tho. I wanna know if somebody uses them here.

Thanks.

i had dunlops on my when i got them and i couldnt tell how bad they were but once i put the pirellis on i could definetely tell the difference. my friend has battlax tires and he doesnt like them because they dont get sticky enough for when he clutches up and they spin. after i go around the block i cant even do a brake torque the tire grabs to hard. lol

I'm a Pirelli guy too...I think they're the best compound out there. But if you don't need the grip you can save money with dunlops, power pilots, or battleax's...you could save alot of money with stinkos....errr shinkos.

I hate Dunlops too for my car...i used to have that. I was looking for the dry traction of the Dunlop RoadSmart but couldn't find it. I live in a tropical country so I need to know which tire will be best for our climate.

Pirelli's are hard to come by here. I'm thinking of getting Battlax 014.

So either BT014 or Dunlop RoadSmarts? Still undecided.

My experience with hotrod cars has been: getting a tire big and soft enough to hook up most of the time will last longer than a harder tire that spins fairly easily, and that theory seems to be proving out on my bike as well. [8D]
