        Waited for replies but no one replied here so went and got my ZMA tyres changed to Michelin Sirac Street.

        Front 2.75 Sirac Street = 1700
        Rear 100/90 - 18 Sirac Street = 2150
        Total = 3850 for Tyre + Tube + Fixing

          hi iam looking for both front and rear tyre replacement for rtr160
          initially thought of changing rear only but now decided to change both

          shortlisted below:

          pilot sporty -- my sizes doesn't match up with sizes shown in web


          sirac street -- only rear ie 100/90 shown in web and have to find front fitment that sync with this kind of rear(thinking of zapper fs)

          sport demon -- it seems some international web does have my sizes but ind web doesn't have and have up-size and all though its very costly

          mrf zapper q -- if decided to go with it and how good would it be with zapper fs front fitment

          other options are also welcomed

          tyre sizes : f 90/90 17"
          r 100/80 18"

            update:

            just now visited Tyre arena near my home (Michellin dealer)

            quoted:
            for rear Sirac Street 100/90-18 - 2200

            for front Pilot Sporty 3.00/17 universal size ie doesn't have proper
            grooves(but i have doubt whether it is same size to 90/90)
            quoted price 1800

            for front Pilot Sporty 2.75/17 exclusive front fitment does have 2
            grooves( but seriously down sizing and might affect handling)

            so rear is ok because we dont have much options in 100/80
            only confusion with front whether to go with 3.00/17 universal or 2.75/17 or scrap michellin and go for 90/90 from mrf ie zapper fs

              Guys,

              Looking for new shoes for my Discover 125, currently shod with 3.00 17" Ceat Zoom.
              Would 100/80 or 90 be a good fit on the current rim or do I have to stick with 3.00.
              I did come across a Michelin 100/90 17 Pilot Sporty at 2200 without tube , is the price right or a rip off.

              Is Zapper 100/80 17" available in the market and will it fit the Discover?

              Any other tire suggestions?

              Regards,

              KK

                Pilot sporty is really a good tyre in terms on wet & dry grip.
                i got it fixed on my twister before 3 months at a cost of 2100rs.
                Comparing to pilot sporty, Zapper is less in performance due to hard material

                    Want to change the rear tyre of my 2008 Karizma. Is it advisable to change the front tyre too?
                    Suggest me a good 120/70(is it a good upgrade?) tyre. Budget is not a big constraint but availability of all brands is.

                        then go for Pirelli that's good in performance & sports look

                            Thanks for taking the time out to reply guys,

                            @Raj,
                            I was looking at 100/80 Zapper was it's profile is a lot smaller and not as wide as the Pilot sporty , as I don't want the tire to scrape the swing arm. I will look for Zapper for a little longer else I'll settle for Michelin
