Low price for Pilots

[OB_jim p]

I checked around and bought a 190/120 set for 293.00 @ Elite Perf ask for Gary 813-920-0428. That was 45.00 dollars cheaper than anybody else.

Please let us know if the 190 Pilots are worth the price of almost TWO 198 OEM Bridgestones built specifically for the Busa.
I hope they are a better value than the super expensive Pilots I tried on my Z-28 which stuck pretty well and wore very quickly. The replacements at nearly 1/2 the cost have been a much better value, longer lasting and ironically are Bridgestones!

Todd how much is replacement set of Slipstones?

 

[Guest]

I paid $147 for the rear at Best Cycle Parts in Las Vegas. (thanks to Vegas Dude)
[consider that a vote!]

I'm not sure anyone has been able to wear our the front OEM yet in order to need a replacement - thus providing the best prices found although Best Cycle Parts may have posted the front tire price at some time.(would have to dig deep in the archives to check)

Frank they don't make the race compound in 190 yet, but the the sport will ball up.

Frank go to the other Pilot post and call, they have 190/50/17 Pilots in both race compounds(reg and soft).

Installed the pilots last night, have not had a ride yet. They look awesome compared to the Slipstones.

Pilot Sports are finally mounted and are finding there way to other Michelin Dealers as well.

Lots of tread, wet weather doesn't look to be a problem.
