Re: The NC30 & 35 tyre thread
For 17" wheels I don't think you can look past the pirelli supercorsa pros - clear leader when it comes to grip and feel, though it comes at a price. This is what most racers are using if restricted to a treaded tyre. For me, this is the best of the best out there.Sunnyday wrote:Give some tyre makes & recommeded me sizes to consider for a NC30 with a NC35 rear wheel.
Go for the 160 width rear: http://www.pirelli.com/tyre/ww/en/motor ... .tab?tab=9
One of my fave road tyres ever was the BT090 (sadly no longer available down under), even with my 17" rear I would choose this tyre over many other options. I imagine the bridgestone BT003rs would also be very good, I haven't tried it yet. It's listed here as the successor to the BT090: http://www.bridgestone.com/products/mot ... 003rs.html

Supercorsas obviously as cammo says but if you want it a little more aggressive use a 70 profile frontSunnyday wrote:whats the best stickiest road tyres that have the most aggresive shape ie pointy rather than rounded ?

Re: The NC30 & 35 tyre thread
