i know they have been replaced with the new 3D, but fronts got loads of life, rear is on the wear band ( few hundred, pos thou left ) but want to match the front still as i hate running odd tyres thumbs

too much power for ya matt thumbs


I've done less than 3,000 on these tyres rofl.. mind you did go through nearly 2mm of tread on a trip to yorkshire, maccles and back!! went with plenty of tread on a square tyre, came back with a pretty slick tyre! I'd rather have a tyre that stuck like glue and ran out quick, than a tyre that slips out.

im sure you can do this but just checking, VP2 Super Sport front and Storm 2 Ultra rear are fine to mix aren't they? i know the VP2 Sport is compatible with the Storm 2 Ultra, so cant see the super sport being different...

Mixing wont be a problem really. just make sure you get them up to temp before really riding them properly. its no different to having a hard tyre on the front and soft on the back in some ways. just make sure you get them warm and nothing to worry about really! imo. thumbs

yeah, im sure the compound on the vp2 sport and storm 2 is the same, but super sport is a softer compound. pulled a stone out my tyre the other day and you can see the cord in the hole but its not letting air out, so better be safe than sorry now!
