Metzeler tire pressure?
I put a set of ME880's on K ren's Deluxe.
I have heard they are very sensitive to pressure, I currently have them at what the sidewall calls for. She says it feels like it's slipping, like on sand, in the curves.... What reccomendations have you??

I am really not a fan of these tires at this point. Hopefully it is just the tire pressure or it is going to be a long ride until they wear out. Everything i have read indicates that the pressure is most likely the problem.

It's the pressure, they're awesome tires.

Just for reference, what does the sidewall say?

Max pressure is listed on the sidewall, not the operating pressure.

While neither get the mileage of the OEM Dunlop, found both the Metzler and Avon to be superior to OEM in both handling and grip. Of the two, the Metzler appears to be getting better mileage.
