After read'n your reveiews I'm gonna check TP in the morn'n. If it isn't high I'm gonna change to a much softer tire. What TP are you run'n in the rear?
With these tire sizes on stock rims, keep in mind that you've added a little extra contact-patch grip at the expense of the super-taut sidewall you once had with the 255's... in other words, the extra puff on the sidewall will give a slight "wiggle" feeling on initial turn-in, but you simply have to know how to get a feel for them. Once the lean is initiated, they lean no more, and simply STICK. The Dragon says so
I've had mine since June/July and am absolutely in love with them.
