My third car tire and the best of them!!!
Smooth like silk on the asphalt, silent and good grip...
Better  handling than Goodyear Hydragrip and Pirelli P6000 that I used to ride.
The Goodyear was a good one too, the Pirelli was more uncomfortable,,,but this one is VERY good!

With 40-42 lbs, it was soooo easy to turn and lay the bike down in the curves,,
I thought I would get more rubber down if I lower the pressure,,,and I am now riding on 30 lbs rear..( 38 in a Metzler , front ).. Works very well for me!!!

That's a great looking tire.  Never heard of it, though.

Hey, How long have you had this tire on your bike and did you have to do the nut cage modification or washer mod? It looks good and I am looking to go Darkside. The Metzler you have in the front is it an 880 series?

No modification !
I have had this on for aweek, but I have ridden car tires for 4 years...no regrets! But some tires are better than others ;)

Wredestein is a well known brand over here, not sure it is in the US ? ;)
Anyway, had a ride 2 up today...150 miles of happy, " silent", soft  riding..
