IF YOU GET SOME PILOT POWER GET SOME PILOT POWER 2 CT'S THATS THE BEST TIRE I'VE FOUND . I HAVE A 190 IN THE BACK AND 120 IN THE FRONT.I GOT AN 02' F4I.

 

You were able to fit that tire on that rim???? I'm sure you had to make a geometry change to get your turning stability back.

 

Yes the 190 will fiton the same width wheel(5.5 inch). However, I wouldn't recommend it if you enjoy turning more than drag racing. The 180/55 has a larger contact patch than a 190/50forturning. Reason being, it has a taller profile so there's technically more rubber to use in leaning/turning. A taller profile gives you better steering quickness as well. And yes the Pilot Power 2CT(2Compound Technology IIRC)is a great tire but unless you're going to the track, I'd just go with the regular Pilot Power and save a few bucks. You'll still love the regular Pilot Power. I know I do..

 

That is what I have, as well. Great tire, but I have heard nothing but good concerning the Pilot Powers.

 

Tireexpress.com has them for $229 for both and I think $20 to ship. I still have my original D207 on my 02' F4i...need to get some new rubber soon.

 

Yup I still got my original Battleaxe tires on mine and they have tons of tread left, but I think for my own safety I should think about getting some freshnew ones very soon

 

i have 'em too and can't believe how long they've lasted. Around 6k!!!

 

I know they have TONS of tread life left, but I'm mainly more concerned about the actual life/aging of the rubber since they're the OEM ones from 2001.....u know???

 

pilot is by far the best tire, i love turning and i just took of the corsa 3 and the pilot is alot better.. i go to the trach sometimes to so its a 190 but i still lean the hell out of it
