Personally I am probably going to switch to the Bridgestone BT003 in a 110/140 set. I have been pretty happy so far with the bias ply gt501 that were stock but I do want to see how a set of radials will feel.

I agree with the idea that going to a 120 in front and a 150 in rear will eliminate the quicker turn in that you get with the smaller profile tires but you may gain some better grip on the highway as far as straight line high speed stability.
