If you ride more than 5k miles per year... it's worth investing in a higher quality tire...
Metzlers are top...
Otherwise,... nuttin' bad to say about Shinko...
I'm torn between a Shinko and a Kenda for my next rear...
My Dunlop rear is now a slick....
... got a Kenda now on the front... but I'm not fussy about matching...
You don't want to buy a better tire than you need...
It'll dry out before you can wear it out...
I got nuttin' bad to say about any brand of tire...
Just buy the right tire for your riding style and how much you ride...
