Good Price on BT-016 Tires - Ducati.ms

$218.95 for front and rear plus $24.95 shipping. This is a decent price for a good tire. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Bridg...3A1|240%3A1318

That's not a bad price for a set, but...

You might want to check Southwest Moto Tires - http://www.swmototires.com/

Particularly if you are buying a front & rear set. Price for set of Bridgestone BT-016's for the Hyper from Southwest is $228.95 - but the shipping is always FREE when you buy two or more tires from them.

So the set in question is just $228.95, which will save you $14.95 compared to the e-Bay merchant mentioned above, and Southwest Moto Tires has been around for a long, long time. I have been buying tires from them since 2004 and their service is fast, accurate, and professional. Most of the time they ship the same day as long as you get the order in by mid-afternoon, and I have never had a tire from them with any problems or issues.

You can check around on other forums, etc., too, and I think you will find their reputation for product and service to be stellar.

Just FYI...

Hope it helps!

That was a great deal! My living room is beginning to look like a tire store

Yep, that was the deal I had for the Hyper (thanks for Peter's notice again...), and last Sunday we also mounted matching set on the Husky 610, so it's all BT-016 on my bikes, we'll see how it goes.

Got mine the next day. Great looking tires.

I love the smell of new tires.

Now if I can just find some knobbies for my Uly, which use the same sixe rims as our hypers.

to anyone that has ridden the motard with the bridgestone tires, how are they? i need tires before the season starts. the pirelli's are good but they do not last long. i have 2100 miles on my motard and the tires are shot.
