Dunlop Elite 3's from an online store like jakewilson.com or cyclegear, etc. Great prices, great tires.

i'm really pleased with the elite 3 i put on the rear. now i'm just hoping my front tire will wear out so i can put one on the front too. the handling and wear are very impressive to me, and to many others here in the forum. i'm sold on the dunlop elite 3's.
