Ratman when I was looking for www's for the 800 last season to put on MA-DEUCE I looked at these shinko's to try them out , but as we all know they don't make the rear . I called Shinko to inquire about this and was told the wasn't a demand for this size , hence the reason I went with the Metzler .
I'm going to try these out as well . The price is right up my alley , unless Mr. GB can work his tire magic and get us all a discount

I am in need of some new tires and these fit the current budget, but I don't want to suffer for saving a few bucks. I have Metzler 880 WWW on now and want to keep the look. Has anyone put sufficient miles on these to judge their quality?
Thanks
