draggin knee is no indicator of gripiness of a tire, I know ppl who can drag knee in a parking lot doing less than 20mph on cold tires.

PPs are great, know several ppl that get 8k out of em, tho I usually get less lol

I think that is a very good price, if it is for both. I bought last year the rear bridgestone 190 55-17 for my f4i and it cost me about 215 us dlls. So if that price is for both please tell us!!!!
I feel such a dumb....

Yea I want to know too. Best deal for 2ct's I found was about 230 shipped and thats a steal. Local shop wants 265 just for a rear.

I'd definitely go with the 2CT's or the new Michelin Power Pures.

I Got my Pilot Power 2CT's in October '09, pd 350 for both installed, and thought it was a Great Deal. I Only have about 100 miles on them since they were installed,(Wisconsin Winter) so I can't vouch for the longevity of the tires, but they are AWESOME!!
I bought them after reading Sport Rider's Tire Test(April '09) ranked them #1, (yes, I read the whole article, in depth, several times), by comparison the Continentals ranked dead last, (which frankly surprised me, since they seemed to be all the rage about this time in '08???)
I don't know how to do all that new fangled "link-to-other-website" crap that's so popular, but I think if you went to Sport Rider's website, you could probably read the whole article by now. Hope this helps!
