Tire help ASAP! 1 year 10 months ago #1

Hi guys,

Sorry to rush this but my rear tire went flat on me this morning on the way in to work, thankfully I made it to a parking lot safely! Just wondering what you recommend for tires on my Max ('09). My bike dealer will hopefully be able to pick it up sometime this morning! This will be my first tire replacement since I've owned the bike, I have about 6100 miles on it. Thanks in advance!!

He should have the Bridgestone in stock, or the Metzler ME880 of the same size. The Bridgestone runs about $25 less. Good luck.	No_Max NOW ONLINE Platinum Max Posts: 2730 Thank you received: 2132

The metzler will give better traction but a little shorter life and ike Bob said the stock Bridgestone is alttle cheaper, it depends on your type of riding. I personally like and run a Perelli on my 2009 but that is a 240, I prefer to run the stock Bridgestone on my 2010 with the stock size rim. vmaxmercer	vmaxmercer OFFLINE Platinum Max Posts: 2584 Thank you received: 1043
