I'm running a ducati 848 evo and I have the sportmax gpr300 in the front and a roadmaster 3 in the back I've got 2k miles of very spirited riding on them so far and I've got to say I feel like I've pushed them to the limit several times but I've never felt as if they were going to let go on me. A few times the roadsmart or roadmaster or whatever in the rear a felt get a little wiggly but the sportmax on the front has never felt as if it was lacking grip at all whatsoever my only issue thus far is that the sportmax gpr300 is showing quite alot of wear after 2k miles where as the rear tire isn't showing much wear at all.
The Goodyear Weatherready is a top tier 3PMS tire. Has excellent traction, for an all weather, on ice and snow, Runs fairly quietly as well.
For the tyre you posted, there is only a few mm till you reach the tread marker which indicates that you will need a new tyre again very soon. On the other hand, one of the best premium tyres in the market only costs you around 50-70 pounds for a new one and it can last for 40000 miles
I had to change tyres for my 5 series last month. I went with Dunlop (not runflat) and can feel a marked improvement in the ride quality over the run flats.
I used them both on street and track on a gsxr600. I loved them for dry weather sporty street riding. On sunny track days, the rear overheats after a couple of laps and the grip noticeable reduces, but even then the rear is still very controllable and completely safe. No warmers needed and excellent wear.
Goodyear eagle F1 asymmetric 6, best all round tyre which isn’t UUHP like a PS4S
I have Goodyear Eagle F1s on the front and mid range on the back, being front wheel drive the back doesn’t really do much other than follow.
I had my WRX for a year and a half, and the entirety of it spent on the stock Dunlop tires.
Above 50°F, go ham. Have fun. They're great.
Below 50°F, don't take high speed corners. If you normally go 40 around a corner, go 35 instead.
That being said, I never lost traction with them, even in 40°F rain. The only time they ever broke loose was when there was snow on the ground, which is expected.
Which slick do you have exactly? I ran the d212 medium and endurance. Absolutely hated them. The medium got destroyed in one day. Started losing grip after 3 sessions already. Then I tried the endurance compound, but it also lasted only 2 days and kept losing grip. Apparently they are very sensitive to pressure, temperature and shock settings.
I put a Dunlop slick rear on recently and had a ton of trouble with it. It needs a ton of heat in order to grip but I never developed any trust in it and it has the worst traction of any tire I've used.
