Michelin vs Pirelli

NaturalFlavored · 04-08-2019, 07:32 PM

That's what I was thinking, I don't abuse tires. I try and avoid potholes and cracks/ bumps in the road, I've always bought pirelli so I'm not 100% on how well Michelin is. So thanks for the input I'll most likely be getting the Michelin unless someone can factually show me facts on Pirelli lasting longer then Michelin.

I use Michelin Power Pure's with good results. Also have Michelin Reggae's on my Zuma. Come to think about it, Michelin's are on both of our Subaru's. I have limited experience with Pirelli tires so I cant comment on them lasting any longer. For rocket bikes I like Bridgestone Battleaxe tires. I always make sure they balance the tires correctly (rumor has it Michelin tires do not require balancing!?) and have never used beads. Do have a friend who swears by dyna-beads though.
