Gents, I have been riding on my Rockster for two sets of Rensport Metzlers as reccomended by BMW. I have changed to a Michelin Pilot Road (the cheapest one) its fantastic! very sure footed, gives huge confidence on either dry or wet roads. Any comments?

Tyres are a very personal thing - I prefer Pirellis to Michelins myself - the Diablo Strada was probably my favourite tyre for the Rockster, shame it's been replaced.

MEZ6 on at the moment, wear is excellent and grip is excellent. OE were BT012s.
I'd be tempted with Road Pilot 3s next time.

I am using the Pirelli Angel ST, very good all around. The OEM Bridgestone were the original selling point, loved those after many years with /5, and /6's, the Rockster handles light years better than the old Beemers.

I ran 2 sets of Conti Road Attack and liked them. I'm mostly concerned with mileage and I got around 10k miles out of the Contis.
Last year I switched to Mich Pilot Road (the original ones) as I got a good price. They have almost 10K miles and look to have 3-4k left. These are the best tires so far.
