just put a set on my lowrider yesterday...if you mount your own tires these were some mothers to do...but they were my second set of tires i ever mounted..well mounting was a breeze,the bead seating is what was so stubborn....ended up getting two ratchet tie downs and put on the tire to get them to seat,but when they did they seated....i also put some dyna beads in for balancing,so far i have almost a hundred miles on and am really impressed...my bike feals like its floating,totally different ride from the dunlops....the balancing was a breeze,just take the valve core out and pour in these ceramic beads from innovative balancing,dyna beads,and remove your old wheel weights and air the tire up and you are done.i had the bike up to 70 and no problems so far,i am waiting till i get the full 100 in before i really get on it...so far i am impressed with the michelins and the beads...i will say the 150/80-16 is a bit smaller than the dunlop.but the tread come closer to the rim than the dunlop also.....
