where on the net has some good deals on a set of Metzlers??

sizes i need are: Front: 150/80-16 and the rears are 180/70-15

i missed out on a great deal for a rear Metzler so now i'm trying to find a place with the best deals.

Thanks for ya'lls help,
William

Do you put them on yourself or have someone else do it for you?

Motorcycle superstore has been the cheapest place i can find tires. Free shipping, but it takes about a week to get them. I dont know if they have faster shipping if you pay for it or not.

Your front tire would be 117.99 Metzeler ME 880 Marathon Touring Front Tire - Motorcycle Superstore

Your rear tire would be 133.99 Metzeler ME 880 Marathon Touring Rear Tire - Motorcycle Superstore

The total would be $251.98, Have you thought about going with the pirellis?

the front would be 93.99 and the rear would be 113.99 for a total of $207.98

dave, im going to have a shop install them for me. i think they quoted me 80 for mount and balance since i wasnt buying from them. but if i did, the tires would run me WAAAAAAY more than what's been quoted here. mounting would run 50 if i bought from them.

rather, i've done some research on the metzlers and have found many more great reviews on them than i have on the pirelli's. plus almost everyone i speak to about metzlers have great reviews about them. i dont doubt the pirellis are a damn good tire but the only thing pirellis have on the metzlers are 45.00 cheaper.

****UPDATE*****
Weather here in Mississippi is kinda crappy so there isnt that much of a rush on the tires. but i'd like to get them ASAP but will still wait on a good deal if need be.

Thanks
