True. I think I like the PP better. But I'm in desperate need of a rear at this point. I've worn a killer flat spot in it and it's become a beast to turn.

yeah, and 1k of that is back and forth from in front of your house to the shed where you store it!

I know there were guys on badwed that got 6-7k out of them. I got 6 out of the front, but with 1 td and 3k i was really pushing it myself.

Nah son. Shed to house is like 10 paces, at best. Most are back and forth to work...4 miles at a time.

Now instead of turning in sharp, they ride like BT003s with a higher price tag.
Yea i believe they are. Its supposed to be the same exact tire as the Pilot just with different compound ratios. But all i know is that the front performed wonderfully. Like i said earlier it felt like there was gum stuck to my tires when i got off the bike at the bottom of the mountain. I recommend them to the max. Ill be getting the rear in 2 weeks or so i doubt ill be disappointed with it.
