    You're making a smart, safe move. MC tires are safer. They have to handle better, they're made to lean to the sides.

    It was quite noticeable going back to MC tires. Plus, I no longer have the hassle of trying to find someone to put a CT on a motorcycle rim. Guy who put my CT on quit doing it.

    No problemo with a car tire here. I prefer it to a M/C tire on the F6B. Just got back from the Rally in Franklin, NC and I couldn't even tell a C/T was on the back. No sidewall wear at all. As a matter of fact you can almost see chicken strips on the edge of the car tire's tread.

    I'm running a Michelin Primacy Alpine ZP 195/55 R16 Run Flat @ 30psi.
