Pilot Road 4s on my 300
After squaring of the stock IRCs i upgraded my tires.
120/60 on the front and 160/60 on the rear. No modifications needed. Tires fit on the stock 300 rims. No fitment issues in the swingarm or forks. Handles great for my riding. 100% street. Feels great in the turns, smooth and responsive. Looks so much better too!

Nice! I wonder how those will wear on the 300, they last forever on supersports and the like. Will probably last longer than my street radials at approx. 7500mi with some life still in them when I switched (for more track grip)
Quote:
look into the michelin street radials, pirelli diablo rosso II, etc and pick whatever fits your style of riding best. The michelins appear to be the best street and rain tire while the pirelli is the best track tire (supercorsas too but those are ridiculously overkill for street use and have effectively no rain grip compared to the drIIs) Of course there are other options too but having experience on both of those tires I'm comfortable endorsing them with complete faith that they are quality tires.
