The oil is only on there to draw more views... 2funny 2funny 2funny

I have an ATT on the rear and was wondering what the options are for new front rubber. I have an ME880 on there now that needs to be replaced after 16k.

Feel free to make comments on both...just leave Trump and the Princess out of it... 2funny 2funny if you want...

The ME880 radial (not bias) is my hands down favorite front tire.

You got exactly double the mileage I get (over and over).  Which is my only compliant.

I'd get another. (esp at 16K)

If you haven't looked lately, it seems MC tire prices ALL went up lately.

I have looked. ME880 has been replaced by the 888 and looks to be close to a 40% increase in price.

The other front most guys like is Avon; first Venom, then Cobra, and now Chrome(?).

I had a bad experience with Avon once and never went back.

I knew the 888 was out for a couple years, but the 880 radial is still available, no?

Bridgestone Exdrea would be my option as it lasted me 15,000 on the front. Presently running Cobra's as I got them on sale but being's they aren't available anymore...
