I've bought from there before. I've been surfing and checking prices and with the free shipping(for two or more tires) they have the best deal on Pilot Road 2s. I've found their prices to be great on previous purchases too. I've got a local shop that will mount and balance for $25 cash per tire

Pilot Road 2s: LT Front, RS Rear is $290 shipped from SW Moto so my total is $340.

Just for kicks I emailed a local shop(Lake City Motorsports) to see what my "out the door" cost would be if I brought my wheels in - $524.07!!!

I called RMC and they quoted me $450ish.

Thank doG for the Internet and SW Moto Tires! Very Happy

Even better: About ten minutes after I placed my order they called me to make sure I knew what I ordered because they didn't know of any bike that had a 110/80-18 Front and a 160/60-18 Rear. That's some good service! Very Happy

when it comes down to it... as long as the costs are similar... its the customer service that make the difference...
