motorcycle tires

hey just wondering if any body has had any experince with these cycle tires.
Pirelli Mt-90A/T or the S/T. they are going onto my street legal dirt bike. Iam leaning towards the S/T because i do alot of on-road riding and just a little off road every now and then. If you have any other recomendations for 2005 Suzuki DR650se let me know. How about places online to buy them from?

Thats odd, I was looking at the same thing for my 650L. The a/t's are the only ones that will fit on my rim. When my rear finishes wearing down, I am going to get the at. They say about 70/30 on off road for the at and 95/5 for the st. Seems that those that have them really like them.

I cannot believe they say tires like that Pirelle are capable of any type of offroading. The 30% offroad they refer to has to be hard pack dirt fire roads, because anything that is wet or slick they will do nothing but make you bust your ***. My 03 dr 650 has Dunlop 606's on it and I love em. Of course they are the opposite type tire as the Pirelli. I like the offroad capabilty of the Dunlop much better.

They are a knobbie tire so they are a little rough and make some noise. Of course they do not corner as well either. But for the kind of tire that they are they are not that bad. I do 50/50 so I can live with the on road performance for the benifit of the offroad.
