I'm sure you'll be able to find summat that's trustworthy and (hopefully) not too expensive. If nothing else, technology is marching on, so you may find something even better'n the Pirellis you liked.

I thought you could get a GPR70 for an 18" rear. They are a bit cheaper, around $250 if i remember correctly.

And then you say you can't go on rides cause you have bald tyres sheeesh. :killingme :killingme :killingme
BTW do all nc30's run an 18" cause the zxr runs 17 and you get pretty cool tyres for them.
If not i dunno what size it is but http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Motorbike-Parts/Wheels-tyres-brakes/auction-16169095.htm

Oh, but I did end up going to Kopu last Saturday to met you fallas there...I couldn't wait long cause I had to get back to the Mount.. :mellow:
I have only been told that they fit a 18', but apparently they can take a 17'.
17' is too bizkit for my liking..
I know you can get some wicked tyres in the 17'. But I got a sweet deal from a dude I know :msn-wink:
Anywho I'm riding up to Orc-land this weekend...heh It's going to be mint :eek:

All NC30's run 18" rears, unless the have an NC35 rear wheel on them, which fits straight on.
I'm going for a new GPR70 next week, top notch tyres IMO :msn-wink:
