I have Elite 3 on back & metzler up front, only one who has noticed is me. If you can live with it, go for it. If its something that will always nag at you, don't do it.

If I go 23 I will go Avon, if I stay 21 I will try Elite 3 next.

I know what you mean. That's why I changed my mind on the ride wright wheels. They looked great but I couldn't afford to do everything else & get the wheels too. I got both DNA wheels and both tires for about the same price as the front ride wright wheel.

That looks freakn awesome Jo.
