Wildbill: Thanks for the update. How many miles did you let them break in for?

And please let us know how long they last.

Ok. They are broken in. Chicken strips are down to sub 1cm. Hairs are gone, and man. My bike is so much better than I thought it was.

I'm not going to ramble because i realize how much I sound like Bridgestone is paying me. All I can confirm is that my new 016's are better than Corse III's by a huge margin. 2 tanks of gas and 500km later I'm a changed man.

391 installed with tax. Still dancing.

That translates down to around $313 USD. Not a bad price for a set of tires installed. Though I can get the PP 2CTs for under $300 installed. Perhaps I'll look into them, since I need a new set for this coming season.

Yeah but I walked down the street here in Canada and got these put on for that price. Tires are base priced from the states, so they are always more expensive up here, even after the conversion. PP 2ct's here for less than 500 CDN just for the tires is a good deal.

Me and my brother both run tomahawk tires, and they are amazing tires for there price. They are $150 for both and they rival my old Dunlops and his old Pilots. Look them up they are used by a top stunter as well

Stunting and street riding is VERY different...
