I am looking for a new set of tires for my 03 zx9.. I found a website that is offering the set for 199.99. My tire sizes are 190/50ZR17 and 120/70ZR17.... Can anyone know of, or find a cheaper price?? Also, anyone live near Tampa and know any good install shops?? Any input would be helpfull...

 

thats a pretty good deal man....

 

+1...less than I paid for mine.

 

Das a good deal man. I'd be careful though some of those discount tires may be old or "seconds". You get what you pay for. Tires is one area you don't want to skimp on. Why do you need Qualifiers anyway?If you're street riding you're wasting your money.208s will last a lot longer and you'll never ride them like they're supposed to be ridden. The pilot powers and pilot roads are good street tires that are waaaaay more tire than street riders need.

if it were a lamborgini you would not put bigO tires on it. bad azz bike needs bad azz tires[8D]

 

+1.

I prefer the dunlop profile better than the michelin products.

 

oh yeah, there's gonna be preferences for sure...but folks that buy soft tires for the street, no matter the brand, are wasting money big time. My oint is get a good tire that lasts you longer and you'll save money in the long run.

 

I understand on what you are saying, I would not run a soft tire on the streets either.

 

How soft is the qualifier??

 

I have over 4k miles on my non-oem Qualifiers, and about 6 runs on the dyno. They are not safe in my opinion for much more. They are the same as the pp's in softness. Or close enough.

edit: They have been good to me. A 1200 mile run/roadtrip at 32psi will give you a small flattening in the center,
