How do you rate the cross climates? They are what I plan to replace my front tyres with (and when the rears wear out I’ll put them on the rear too).

He could have said the speed rating is how fast he is legally allowed to go, irrespective of the speed limit. ;-)

So should I just replace all four tyres and start fresh? Or replace the worn tyres with the same spec? As it appears that having different tyres front and rear could be problematic though I’d now have significantly different tread depths front and rear if I put new tyres on.

Currently I have 2.5mm tread on front tyres and 4.5 on rear. Am assuming it’s too late to swap front and rears.

118mph top speed (allegedly) its a 2014 Laurin and Klement 1968cc diesel, 4wd. The CrossClimate plus appear to be an upgrade over the stock tyres (primacy 3).

So does this mean front and rear tyres have to be the same? My front tyres need replacing soon, I’d like to upgrade to crossclimate plus. Would I meet a fiery death and invalidate insurance if I upgrade my front tyres only at this point? The crossclimates 225 50r17 are only V rated.

I’d strongly suggest getting a tow bar mounted one if you can. Getting filthy bikes on top of a car when tired can be difficult. I have also seen too many bikes that have been damaged by things overhanging the road. Also there is a temptation to leave roof racks on when not in use which affects fuel economy.
