    Michelin Pilots

    Has anybody else fitted a set of pure road tyres on a Tiger. I have recently fitted a set of Michelin Pilot 2's to my 955i. I had Anakees before and the difference now is incredible. The road holding is superb wet or dry. So if anybody is thinking of fitting road tyres, I would highly recommend these.

    My Tiger has Bridgestone BT20s fitted and handling is fantastic.
    Even in the wet it seems to grip very well - certainly inspire more confidence on wet roads than the Trailwings on my Vara do!

    Let me know what the wear is like. I've got Metzler Tourances on mine but there's no way I'm taking it offroad!
