If youre putting 50 miles a day on it 5 days a week PLUS goofin off, havin fun AND running it,, what? Year round? 10 months? 1,075 miles/ month, just goin to work,,add your estimated RF&G miles ( RF&G = Running,farting & giggling)/month,,multiply by months /year you can ride like that. The way Im lookin at it is, youre laying down enough miles to justify as classy a hunk of rubber as is available. Id look for the tire that gives the most miles, period. Ive run Dunlops that were reasonably priced, but only gave about 5,000 miles, but I didnt try to stretch them, I was playing, hard. Well, as hard as I dared, Im really sorry, but I just cant think of the names of the higher class, highway type tires. I know they cost more, but if you can get 8,000 miles or maybe 10, & NOT be payin someone to put a new tire on & not be down while its being done? Hey,, theres $30.00, at least around here.. Id pay $100.00 more for a tire that went twice as far. It would actually work out to be savings over time,.
