Tyre size:
What tyre size do you require?
The exact size of a tyre can be found on its sidewall.
The following chart shows you how to read a tyre size.
1. Overall tire width in mm
2. Ratio of tire height to tire width in%
3. Tire design: ''R'' = radial tires (widely used), ''D'' or ''-'' = diagonal tires (rare)
4. Required rim diameter for this tire in inches
5. Key figure for tire load capacity
6. Key figure for the permissible maximum speed (speed index)
7. Motorcycle tire identification, tires only approved for motorcycles
8. DOT labeling
9. Date of manufacture of the tire (week of production / year of production)
 
/
SPEED INDEX:
The speed index indicates the maximum speed intended for the tyre. Up to this value, the manufacturer guarantees optimum operation with the appropriate tyre pressure. The maximum speed allowed for this vehicle is given in the vehicle owner's manual; this information can be used to select the appropriate speed index for the tyre. The speed index is the last mark on the sidewall of the tyre.

No issues with these tyres, they provide the grip and stability that I need for my journeys I have only done 1200km so far on the tyres and they seem fine l've owned this bike for 20years so I have a good feel of it I used to commute all year on it but now only pleasure runs out

As a Bloodbiker I ride in all areas and in all weathers. I had learned before I started this that the Metzeler tyre was excellent in both wet and dry conditions. the effect is that you are always riding the same bike with the same performance characteristics - on previous bikes it felt that i was riding a different bike whenever it rained compared to when it was dry. On aa advanced skills training day, one of the instructors ran up to check what tyres I had fitted as he was surprised at the way my bike handled and could stop in shorter distances than most of the other bikes. On my main bike, this is now the fourth or fifth set I have fitted, and when I bought another bike, there was no doubt in what tyres I had fitted straight away, with these being the automatic choice for my daughter's bike too.

Using Metzler tyres on my bike gives me confidence whatever the weather. Too many other brands behave differently in the wet vs dry - it can be like having two different bikes on the same journey. You don't sacrifice longevity with the Metzler either, with 9-12,000 miles per set (15,000km+. That's better than some other brands.). Their latest compound seems to have gone back to what they used a few years ago and the grip quality has improved (it had been deteriating over the last couple of versions - still better than other makes, but not the same as they made 5-6 years ago. As I volunteer to deliver blood products, I'm out in all weathers, throughout the year, so the performance of my tyres is vitally important. the Meltzer's do deliver!

before i use Bridgestone tyres, when i chang to Mitas tyres i see hudge difference, rear tyre is much better stick to asphalt than with BS. Propably this is the best choice with lower price.
27.06.2022fromLenehan
190/55 rear - 120/70 front. I normally buy Michelin, Dunlop or Conti Sport tyres but spotted these on eBay and read as many reviews as I could find, over a couple of weeks, before deciding to buy. I haven't been disappointed! ....Cleaned newly fitted tyres with a blast of brake cleaner, clean rag then warmed them up on a 6-mile high-speed blast around local ring road and couple of laps of 3 interconnected motorway roundabouts, before a big left-hand helical motorway slip road then up onto the pennines for a few miles of twisties. Bike felt comfortable, solid, balanced and predictable from the start. They went straight on font and rear without the need for balancing (after the valve - balance marks were lined up). Tyres have inspired more confidence with every mile and haven't squirmed in the dry yet, even under full throttle. Fantastic performance for the money.
21.09.2021fromMladen
Very grippy tires, warms up quickly, very flickable and easy to switch directions, especially when new. I tested them completely new and cold, went full gas and they didn't slide. So when new they are very grippy. After 6000 km grip gradually dissapear as tyre wears out in the middle. You can expect 10 000km from the rear and front can go at least another 3-5000 km. Higly recommend. The best cheap new tyre for your money.

No difference to a top brand, works on all road conditions.

The best tyre for fast riding in road and track. Sharp steering wheel and and to much grip in high lean angles. Extremely grip in dry and very good in wet with the best mileage in this category.
07.02.2021fromTeo
Excellent tyre with extreme grip in all conditions for fast riders.

Bargain price , got to try out on a bike I've just rebuilt as a track day bike that I can use on the road , grip well ,cut up nice , don't seem to wear ?!?!
18.01.2019fromGH
Sportec M3 don’t give me confidence in the slightest when wet. I’ve had the rear wheel spin out on me when opening up to overtake on motorways in the wet. I’m not a light person son the bike has a good load weight but breaking is very poor in the wet too.
25.03.2013fromViperx220
Great tyre at a great price. Like glue on a blanket :)

Never liked the Pirelli's in the wet so tried these and got just a nice all round result. Not brilliant at anything but trustworthy in any weather.

Very dissapointed. Tires arrived bumpy. Front tire felt like tractor tire, shipped it back to mitas slovenia, they sent another one (less bumpy) but still bad.
16.04.2023fromSebastjan
no complaints, the tire is more than great for the money. the handling of the motorcycle is satisfactory both in the wet and in the dry.. the rear tire lasted about 9500 km of quite wild driving in wet and dry conditions.. even on the highway over 200 km/h it is very stable.. the front tire would have lasted a few more km..

I have had nothing but puncture after puncture with Pirelli. 2 Rosso 2’s and even worse Rosso 3’s x2, too soft for British road’s but I am held to ransom as I can’t get Michelin’s in the size any more for some reason.
23.12.2021fromSean
Good grip wet & dry(>10degC) and reasonable feedback, mainly used on fast A and twisty B roads. Ride quite hard so only about 2500 miles from rear tyre, about double for front. Comparable to other tyres, is Michelin road smart 4

I am in the older age category but still like riding enthusiastically. I live in the northern part of the UK with some brilliant twisty roads, usually well surfaced and reasonably quiet of traffic. These are the roads I like, where I can enjoy myself. Don't take all of the star ratings as accurate as some are not fully tested but they inspire trust and confidence. Also fitted to my VFR800
23.02.2022fromMark
The front gives way under cornering with no warning. On at least two occasions under normal cornering and not heavy or fast, the tyre has lost grip. I was lucky to manage to keep the bile from dropping. i usually cover about 8000 - 1000 miles a year in all conditions. I used the RoadTec 01 in the past and they were a better all round tyre, the new SE seems to be lacking in feedback. I would use the RoadTec 01 again but not the SE.
11.12.2021fromChris
20yrs riding experience. Have 3 bikes currently. Live in NE Scotland. Very confident dry riding fast where safe to do so but cautious in the Scottish wet slippy roads.
