Default how many miles do you have on your stock rear tire

Hi Yall,
&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Just wondering how many miles youv racked up on the stock tire. I now have 8800 and its time to change her cause she's looking pretty worn out. I still havent decided what to replace her with , either back to the same size or give the 180 a go.

12.5K on stock Dunlop. Was going to 180mm but got a good deal on another stock Dunlop so I will postpone the 180 for another 10K.

7200 on Dunlop 180 wouldnt' pass inspection....
Now I've got 13000 on a Dunlop 170 and it still looks good... Better handling as well..
I think the 180's are hyped and over rated........&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; But they look Good,
