About to go Dark Side for first time

[R3inCC]

I'm ready, the evil forces have beckoned me.... I'm about to order my tire, I'm looking at the General G-MAX A/S 03 (http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...R6GMAS03&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes) Has anyone tried it, correct me if I'm wrong but it seems that 225/55 is the best size to go with.....ANY AND ALL INPUT WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED

Nice looking tread pattern. I have not used that one so can't comment on it.

225/55-16 is the size to go for.

Looks too chinese to me, have not tried it, this is the one i'm running

Does it come with life insurance ?

Prepare yourself for the onslaught of crud from the naysayers

Don't just go by size. Tire rack gives total width. Different tire manufacturers of same size tire has different total width. I learned the hard way.

Slidderhd, Do you happen to know the ideal width and height? And by the way, I love that you have a link to CMA on your posts, God bless you brother!

I am having this mounted on Saturday:

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Yokohama&tireModel=AVID+ENVigor+(H-+or+V-Speed+Rated)&sidewall=Blackwall&partnum=255VR6ENVXL

I got the runaround the last couple of days looking for an Auto Tire place to mount it.
What a pain in the ass.

Found a Bike Dealer that has done Car Tires for Gold Wings, so happy days.

please let me knowhow it feels...... I like the idea of more surface area to the pavement....... I am new to the r3t with 800 miles. I will get now to get used to the tire quirks.....
