I've got a set of Z6's on the way so I'm good for now, but finding a 160/70 rear in stock has been a problem in the past.
The Storms are good tires, but the front causes a wobble at certain speeds on the 1100. Not a huge issue, but I'd prefer to do without it. Also, the 160/70 rear is not the same tire as the 170/60 that has failed on the 1300. The 160/70 is reinforced for the BMW LT and has a much higher load rating and no failures I'm aware of.
Has anyone ever run a 160/70 Storm rear and a Z6 or other radial up front and how did these "mismatched" tires perform?
