Now don't get me wrong, MANY tires are underrated. The Ventus V12's for instance has scored very high on several tests, but they aren't a tire with the grip of say the OE or the RE-11's.

Obviously price comes into play and for a set of OE tires or RE-11's you're looking at a pretty penny.

I myself would really like to try and may when I get to the point of needing tires the Vrdestein Sessanta's. Very good ratings... very popular over in Europe, great in the rain and sun, and one of the coolest looking tread patterns i've ever seen.

So who here has changed tires? To which? and why did you choose them?
