I went to the Darkside - AKA, car tire on the bike

Hi thought about running one on my bike because racing will only be stright line. I was looking at the Michiln 215 / 45 / 17 with a speed rating of ( Y ) above 186 MPH. Bike tire only 168 MPH. Still thinking about using one.

So in the end, is a car tyre better than a motorcycle tyre if we are talking about turbo / supercharged bikes in terms of grip?

Hi. I would say some do some do not. The car drag sliks have the most, a cheep car 205 / 17 not as much. As bike tires verry also.

I think for an open road highway bike that a car tire would reign supreme. But for everything else a motorcycle tire is the answer.
