Im a Mich fan for sure. I ride the Pilot Sports and have for quite some time. I have also ridden on 207's and 208's. I love my Pilots. Im thinking of getting the H2's next time out. Anyone use these? Have U ridden both? Can you compare for me.
B$ anyone mentions it Im not getting the M1's. I just want to know what U think about these? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I ride the H2's. On the street they are the most confidence inspiring tires I've ridden on. Been through Bridgestones and Dunlops. Liked the 207's but hated the Battlaxes. I have never ridden on the Sports, but alot of my friends love them. That convinced me to go with the H2's. Also I have only seen one M1 Sportek(sp). It was hard as a rock and caused a bad rear shaking sensation at any lean angle.

Great Tires. A few downsides though...
1 They take longer 2 get up 2 operating temp
2 They arent the most inexpensive
3 When they get really soft and hot, they tend 2 spurt up little pieces on ur undertail
Besides that they are awesome!!!!

They definitely are not the cheapest tire but these tires come up to temp faster and get warmer than the Supercorsas on the street (another DOT to compare to that I see on the street alot). Don't see alot of 208 GP's on the street so I can't compare. They too are high dollar. Just about any of the DOT's are going to be better than a street tire but you are going to sacrifice some mileage.

Tire choices, in my opinion are personal. You go with what makes you comfortable. For me...i love the pilot sports for the street. Its all about which one you are most confortable with.

On the Pilots about 2 K or 2500. That includes 2 - 3 track days a month and mostly street and canyon riding in between. Track time is due to go up now that summer is here.
