What's the tread of your tire look like, Vivo?

It's not a rain tire actually... we use it here for scooter racing... It just performs perfectly in wet and dry race tracks due to the very good sticky rubber compound! That's why I like it on rain....

By the way, we seldom have dry season here... we are hit by 25 storms and typhoons every year... 6 to 15 foot floods... we have rains even on summer...Last 2009, a flood reached my house's second floor...destroyed one of my cars and lots of things... yes we have real rain... lots of people here have rubber boats in cases of evacuations due to floods...What we don't have is snow...  :P :P :P :P :P

Vivo,

Could you give me a shop address  where I could get me a pair of these Mizzle tires please?
I haven't changed my tires yet.  The front tire is still Kenda while the rear tire is a Samson.  Ever heard of Samson?  I haven't.    What have you heard about Avon tires?  Are they worth it or just pretty? TIA

Andy

I got mine from Jemka in Marikina... but they are also available in Tres Hermanas and Dekka in Caloocan... Not familiar with Samson... Avons are good but more expensive...
