I haz a bieks :D
Just had a new front rubber ring fitted today, a Pilot ACTIV.
Thing is, I noticed on the way home, that the steering was a little more reluctant to do its thing than usual. I just put this up to more rotating mass from the full tread, as opposed to less from the worn one.
Got home, 110/80! Old dunlop was /70.
I'm hardly concerned, but would taking it back and asking for the right size set out by my manufacturer be silly?
I offer this picture as payment.
Some people just can't seem to comprehend that they do not have the right to be unoffended in their lives.

if you ordered a 110/70 then yes, they should replace it. i ordered a 140/70 for the back and got a 140/80but the change in gearing is nice and it didnt rub too much....

I didn't ORDER that size, but the man insisted he knew what he was doing, and my only input was 'yeah matching the rear type too.' So I think go back tomorrey!

It does come in a 70. http://two-wheels.michelin.com/2w/fr...085642&lang=EN
Probably the shop had an 80 on the rack, and wanted rid of it...
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
