.060 Over
Hello out there!
I just purchased my 07 r3 roadster classic, and it looks like my first upgrade will be a new front tire.
I'm kinda green when it comes to tires, so hopefully someone can fill me in on this.
I have been looking at a new 150/80 r17 for the front, and it looks like the factory 880 seems to have pretty good overall reviews. I am wondering if it really makes a difference between choosing an H rated or V rated tire.
I know that the H rated is bias ply where as the V rated is a radial. Would that make much of a difference in ride-ability or handling? Would it bad to have a bias ply up front and a radial in the rear? (assuming that the rear tire is a radial as well?)
Any other things I should consider?
Not looking to ride this thing like a over 100mph anyway, but I am interested to know what I should be looking for.
Thanks!
