For us the PR4s are more than adequate. Link to post
neil700 72 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Or if the price is right Pirelli Angel GTs are as good as the PR4s. I would go for either Link to post
Mark8arker 527 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Trying continental road attack 3 at the moment. Mainly commute into Manchester from Littleborough. After 4k, im real pleased with them. Wiil probably try PR4'S next. Link to post
Tonyj 6,907 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 For straight line stuff and very decent wear rates try conti motion ‘s , very economical tyre , wet grip adequate Link to post
Guest GS Jockey Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Another vote for the Conti 'Road Attack' from me. Had them on my FJ for three years now, after fitting Exup/Genesis wheels. Also got them on my RT, and use 'Trail Attacks' on my GS. If I go ahead and get an NC I'll be specifying them for it. They do seem to wear a bit quick, (~6-7k for rear) but that's the trade off you get for S-T-A-S stickiness. The suggestion of Conti Motions might be worth considering if most of your riding is vertical. Link to post
