I run BT-16s 150 rear, stock up front. great grip, good tire life, good price. Theres a few threads on this and opinions vary.

Bt-016's are the best overall. Bt090's are good (being phased out I think). Bt003rs are a triple compound I prefer the first two to the 003's

I see Richard has been running the Power Ones and likes them. I have ran the Pilot Powers (not the Power Ones) and perfer the bt's to over them. Guess Ill be trying the Power Ones on my next set.

We run the Power Ones and finished 2nd overall on them in CMRA Mini Endurance in 2009.
