Not to forget sand and lost sugarcanes during the rainy and harvesting Season. There is more sand than wet roads while riding, so the best tip is to slow down ???? Want to be a better driver?

jackdd Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I guess we are talking about pure street tires, in this case: Just stay away from tires which are marketed as something like sport/racing, such tires are made for dry pavement. Pick tires which have a decent amount of tread grooves, usually these tires are marketed as something like street/road, they are made to work reasonably well in all conditions. Which tires exactly will depend on what is available in Thailand in the required size. If you ride something like a Honda CB500 there will be dozens of options, but if you happen to ride a 1000cc bike with a wider rear wheel the options are probably quite limited.

Theyr'e not bad but the Michelin on my other ride ,as far as I can tell, gives better road feedback and grip esp in wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, cant go wrong with Michelin, Pirelli or Metzeler tires if you want better grip on wet as mixed conditions. Hips of choices the choose between. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
