Hey guys, Just asking for some advice. I have got some rims that need track tires Stock sizing is 100/80-17 and 140/70-17 for a zzr250 I want suggestions for wet and dry as I will have two sets of rims. Cheers Ross
Hey Ross, I used Bridgestone BT003RS for dry and they worked very well. I was running Michelin Pilot Road 3's for rain tires on my ZZR and I was very impressed with the wet grip they provide. Check out the Visordown review of the Michelin: http://www.visordown.com/features/michelin-pilot-road-3-1800-mile-tyre-review/18694.html
Yeah those road3s are really great tires, just a little pricey I may have go with them any ways. Are you running stock sizes? Any other suggestions?
i thin western was doing bridgestone last year at the track. he may have some left kicking around. or Ryan might have some mich. for the 250's
I have a set of new dunlop 125gp rains for sale. a block style front and turbo style rear. $250.00 obo
Those 125GP tires may be too small for a ZZR250. They have slightly bigger wheels than the 250R. I'm running a 110 front and a 140 rear on mine.
thats the posted size not the actually sizes the rear is the same size as a 600 front. For the cbr we run 125gp tires on it. but it could be run on 2 front tires. Its worth buying a pair of take offs and give it a try. Many rz350's ran 125 gp tires along with many small displacement bikes.
The RZ's still run those tyres today. On 3.0 fronts and 3.5 rears. They also fit on 2.75's. Rim sizes that is... If you really want to know what fits on what, what's recommended, what might work, check this link out [it's a PDF]: www.mediafire.com/?w7ke0q2t3dx7tz9 cheers
Now I know they are "sport touring tires" but what if I put a couple of Michelin Road 3s on the little ZZR 250. How many people would I be pissing off then?
