Guys,
I tried to do a search in this forum to get my questions answered, but not many threads showed up. Looks like my OEM Bridgestone S20's are on their last legs. With that in mind I was thinking about replacing them with their successors. However I'm open to other brands depending on your experiences, so, any suggestions?

I'm probably going with the S22's when mine get there. Rockmountainatvmc is where I'll get them.

Hello, unfortunately this post is too vague. There are approximately 2 pages of threads with the word tire in their title. I've allowed tire and oil threads to be posted without being combined into other similar threads as long as they are specific to what OP is looking for.
I still don't wanna overmod and lock this so just please update your OP maybe with what kind of riding you do, what kind of tire you're looking for maybe traction vs tire wear, etc. Give us something to help you!
Taking my moderator hat off, I think the stock tire is the best street performance tire out there if you're doing non-commuting, agresive type street or beginner tpto intermediate track riding. Average life expectancy between 2000-4000 miles.

Love the tire it comes with and will probably go with the newest generation of the Bridgestone. I have 2.5k on them now and appear to have more than half the life on them.

Hey all. I replaced my OEM (Bridgestone S20's) about 2k km back with Pirellis Diablo rosso IV. Amazing grip on windy roads. The Pirelli profile is more suited to faster pace along curves-turns. I have noticed that in high speeds ( on the straight) 180-200km, there is a little wiggle in the back that I didn't get with the Bridgestones. When you compare the two profiles, you will see that the Bridgestone is flatter in the middle ( steadier on the straight), while the Pirelli has less contact area on the straight. It all depends on what you want in handling. I guess for commuting and weekend spinoffs around winding roads the Bridgestone is excellent. For faster commute and a lot of windy roads plus track days, the Pirelli would probably be better. Having said that, my next change will probably be back to the Bridgestones ( I dont like the wiggle in th  e straight!). My 2 cents. ![]() |
