    Tyre delivered today, think it came from Germany, 3 days since ordered.

    Just noticed 100 posts, do I get a present?

    Cheers Pete,

    I must admit that is cheap as chips, always worry when something is that chap that its a pile of poo, just yesterday i found a nail in my BT 010 so thinking of changing it anyway, its the same size as my current tyre, someone told me its for a car, what they going on about?

    I have just removed my S20 and now fitted Pilot Road 4 for the winter.
    I will use them again in the spring

    I bought a front and rear for £138.00 delivered, the best a local tyre shop could do for both fitted was £270.00. The local tyre fitter is charging me £5 a tyre to change over

    I didn't have a choice in it to be fair haha although wasn't unhappy it the price. Plus the guy that changed the tyre etc told me.to.come on out back whilst I had.my.cofffee and ciggy and chatted about bikes. He actually works for mitchelin at track days etc at donnington and Snetterton

    I notice they have different prices for what would seem like the same tyre..... The Only differences being they are explicit around the dot code being 2011 and the tyre bring a G or an F code. What are you guys buying?

    Just a quick update on the set I bought back in November. I was a bit concerned as they were very cheap, £137 delivered for front and rear.
    Had them fitted in December and used every day since in this weather.

    Conclusion. What a brilliant set of tyres. We have had some warmish days, and they provide so much feel and are more than adequate for my needs.

    I will be using them again for further bike and car tyres.

    Inda

    Thanks for the update. I ran the S20R last year and loved them.
