Of course, you wouldn't want to take them to the track (they are touring tires) but they fit my needs.


I think that’s another of the many awesome things about the twins, you can throw just about any tires on them and it will be fun. I’m using all seasons now also, Continental DWS06 in the same size as the Primacy 215/45-17. (I think I will go with 225 width next) I have noticed a slight drop in mpg, but not much. And the handling and braking feel are much more confidence inspiring. But I also had fun running the Primacys, it’s a good tire to get a feel for the handling and chassis, and break traction easily.
