      Zoom is good series from ceat slightly better than mrf but like mrf wet grip is no lower side not as bad as mrf.
      You can also explore Apollo actigrip series.

        You want handling and wet grip in that size ?
        Go for MRF Masseter 80/90-17 (yes 80/90) and MRF Masseter 100/90-17.

        The grip is phenomenal. Especially wet grip is something you'll never miss on these tyres, they grip like leech on wet tarmac. Goodluck.

          Thats the default tyre size of Pulsar 150 Classic 2018.
          MRF Masseter range is very good with wet grip but what about durability ? Since my brothers job (Civil Engg) is around construction sites and roads leading to them are almost non existent.. i dont think Masseter would be a good choice.
          So i have very few options of CEAT and MRF.

            I do bad roads often and Masseter has been very good for me, although grip on slush is not the best I would say.

              For bad roads or non existent roads, use MRF Meteor /Meteor M, I've been using meteor happily on my 220. Before this I had RevZ S, it had phenomenal grip but I'm off-road and wet slush, it slips, you need chunky blocks for that. So my cousin whose annual pilgrimage is Leh Ladakh recommended me this.

                • Guys, I own a CBR 250R running MRF Masseter 23k kms done. The rear's grip is total, Zero grip on sand patches and wet roads.
                  I thought of getting a Michelin PSR pair, but it's been out of stock in Chennai for long time now.

                  If you know any dealer who's selling Michelin PSR in Chennai, please reply to this message. Also please suggest some alternatives (not costly ones). Requirements - Grip in both wet and dry conditions and at least 15k mileage. Thanks in advance
