Replacement Tyre

Post by Brooner » Tue May 29, 2018 11:24 am

Guys

as some of you know i had a puncture a few weeks ago after just putting my summer tyres back on
the rest had about 5-6 mm left so im reluctant to by new tyres as ill hopefully have a shiny new B9 next year

so my question is if i get a used tyre with the same wear are the michelin pilot super sports a any side tyre or is there a left and a right side
i cant see any thing on mine that indicates rotational just states the outside of the tyre

sorry for the idiotic question but just want to make sure before i buy one

thanks

I always go for Asymmetric, makes life easier as you can put them on any wheel. Rotational are a right royal PITA IMHO.
