    IMHO do not match the bike in the slightest - fugly is the word that comes to mind and would be much better in plain black. Sorry, just my view.

    I like it but think I would prefer plain black tyres too.

    If I'm honest, I'm not generally a great fan of the all black look either but I do think that it's the lesser of the two evils in this case.

    I run Vittoria corsa , they seem to get lots of small nicks and cuts in them but they just keep going. They grip and feel better than most of the others I've tried.
    Don't bother with the diamanté pro , which cut and slice to bits then fail , there is a reason they are dirt cheap now.
    Your bike , your fun.
    Good luck.
