What brand tire 82 1100EZ ?
Does anyone have any input on what brand tire to run? I currently have the Metzeler Lasertec front and rear, have got 10k miles on them in 2 years. I was wondering if there would be a better mileage tire for a daily driver with stock wheels. Thanks for any input.Tags: None

10k miles out of a rear tire is pretty good. You looking for more than that? It's going to be difficult considering the limited selection of tires that fit our bikes.
Best sizes for your bike as 130 rear and 100 front. I don't have any suggestions in a more durable tire than what you are using in those sizes.Ed
To measure is to know.

I get 10-12,000 out of the Bridestone Battleaxe BT-45's on mine.
More, if I don't twist the throttle quite so much. Or, on less powerful engines, up to 16,000 miles. (Rear tires)
The front's, usually go about 22,000 miles.

IMHO, I would stick with the Metzler Laser Tech!! That is all I have used since they quit making the ME99 perfect rear tire.
I tried Dunlaps, they cupped to much for me! Metzlers wear nice & even! Besides, after about 9000 miles, I'm looking for new meat anyways!!Last edited by GDT1960; 02-19-2012, 04:13 PM.sigpicIt wasnt me! I didnt do it! You cant prove anything!
