I need some new Michelin pro race 3's

Shopping around it looks like sdeals.com have the cheapest price. I've never dealt with them and know nothing about them, are they reputable or should I shop elsewhere?

I've used them once of twice, no problems.

My Pro3 set came from HighonBikes, never had any issues, also very quick from experience and @ £47.95 a pair, very well priced.

£28 isn't that cheap is it.

I too bought my last pair from Highonbikes, although this time I am thinking of getting either 3 or 4 from CRC, for only £21.99 each.

Just noticed, that just 1 or 2 of a few colours (Though annoyingly not yellow!) are available for only £19
700 X 23 - Black, Digital Blue, Pink!, Yellow Flash.

Gatorskins used to be great value now they are a rip off. Having said that so are most bike tyres ... maybe this rant should extend to frames and components too. What's happened to the price of stuff?

Oh and to answer your question, yes

for wet specific tyres just get these: http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtop ... t=12794322

for £20 it's good value, and you'll be helping someone else on here!

For commuting I'd go for Michelin Krylions instead. They're a bit tougher and will last longer.

I think the ones I had on my summer commuting bike lasted about a week of commuting
Of course that was just one set on one bike and doesn't tell you much about overall reliablity
They were very fast tyres, grippy and looked great

My summer commuting bike now has the very cheap Bontrager Racelite Hardcase on it.
