My Freel has Mishelin Latitude Tour HP 235/65R17 104V. I have bought the car with them 1,5 years ago. I can say nothing bad about these tyres. I found here below

Just today I had 2 General Grabber UHP tyres fitted to the rear, payed £192 all in, seem very quiet and get good reviews too. I looked at all sorts but these seem like a bit of a bargain, made i'm told by Conti' so can't be bad. |

Thanks Lar They are more expensive, but it's whether they're worth the extra money. I'm very tempted to give them a try Gone - TD4 XS Auto, Sumatra Black, Mud flaps and side strips, clear indicators, private plate, privacy glass |

I've looked at them also, Dunk. It'll be interesting to see how they wear. As you rightly point out, they are a bargain Gone - TD4 XS Auto, Sumatra Black, Mud flaps and side strips, clear indicators, private plate, privacy glass |

Have had the Latitudes on mine since new. Apart from one that got damaged at 3k and had to be renewed, the others are all original.Nearly 30000 miles later and still well over 3mm tread left. I reckon they should be good for at least another 6000 miles.

I'm running a set of latitude tour HP's on my 2008 HSE. So far I have no complaints, and have been on some snow and ice here in Colorado-USA. Good in 6"+ of snow. Road manners are good as well.

Just put a set on my 08. Went for a long drive to Alabama and back. Nice and quite very good ride so far.

Michelin tyres always last longer............my Disco done over 37000mls on them and there was still about 3-4mm left.

Michelin - not on my Ducati's they don't: 3k miles on the rear and 5k on the front But brilliant in both wet n dry very high speed riding conditions Michelin Sport 2CT's - truly the dog's b*ll*cks of motorcycle tyres. Sod the wear rate, I love'em |

I don't think it will cause a major issue. LR recommend all four tyres should be the same, but replacement in pairs is fine. I've got GY Wranglers all round now, only because I had a brand new spare, which is being used now. I'll probably go for Latitude's next time though Gone - TD4 XS Auto, Sumatra Black, Mud flaps and side strips, clear indicators, private plate, privacy glass |

my comments were related to Michelins on cars, can't comment on what they are like on motorcycles. Iain |
