Duro tire review

wolfpuss · April 26th, 2012, 10:41 PM

Well I had a blowout in the middle of no where a few weeks ago so I installed a new set to replace the crappy stockers.
Ended up going with duro blvd rear 130/90/16 which is a cruiser tire and duro hf918 100/90/16.

The rear is a hard compound but it's wayy better than stock. Very good in everyday riding and the wear has been excellent. I would not recommend this tire for track use unless you wanna crash. Grips good in the rain

The front is a softer compound and it's sticky. It takes me to corners with confidence. Awesome in the rain.

The verdict:

Good tire for the price. The whole set cost me $130. Cheap but the quality has been good. I would recommend this tires if you're in a budget
