Guys,

Anyone running PR2's on their LT BOTH front & back using STOCK rims?

I'm told 110/80ZR-18 on the front and 150/70ZR-17 on the rear should be OK.

How's it working out????

I'm trying to get to a matched set of tires without changing the rear rims.

Currently running Michelin Pilot 2 on front Avon Azaro on rear

You don't like the pr2, azaro combination? I think it's great! I'm putting another set on very soon.

I like them just fine.
I'm hoping a "matched set" of PR2's would be even better.....

A couple guys posted here mounting them. Just curious to see how it worked out.

8890 miles on mine and still going even with 3 plugs. They are about done, maybe another 1000 before I change them out. I have another set in the garage just waiting to be mounted.

I bought both sets at Motorcycle Superstore. I did not find anyone selling for less, no sales tax to me and free shipping. What more could a boy ask for?

I have been running the Avon Azaro Rear with the Avon Storm on the front. Over 8k on the front with no issues and many more miles left. I plan on continuing this combo as long as I can.
