Tyre for RX-135

RX135 · 22nd September 2008, 23:43

Guys,

I want to change rear tyre for my RX135 and I need advise from you. I checked with Darshan Tyres in Pune and they quoted Rs. 1000 for TVS and Rs. 1350 for Michelin. I was in a hurry, so did not check specs, but I assume them to be standard rear tyre specs for RX135.

I want:

Good dry/wet grip.
Good cornering at high speeds (not "flicking" in traffic, I don't do that).

Please consider that I am running stock 12bhp RX135 and can't afford to have fat tyre for that power.

2.75 Zapoper FV for the front ( if you can find them ) and 3x18 michelin M45 for the rear.

Sunny my RXZ is arriving in week or two, which one you suggest for that?Can we try something from Pirelli?
Fitted the M45 3.25 in my CBZ, now sitting on 2.75 ceat front tyre, 3.5 ceat rear tyre(from RD), Michelin M45 4" and M62 3", will be throwing the ceats and using Michs in RD.
RXZ is also coming with stock ones can we do some swappings between RXZ and RD's ceat tyres or will throw all and buy new ones?
