[8D]OK,Ozkat.slicks,used on a road bike I tend to only have on the front.If you run a slick out back & get used too it there is the risk of the rear "pushing" the front.If ya STICK to the front only & GROOVE IT well,you may be impressed?
The codes go sumwot like this,
180 width
67 % height of width (profile)
17 dia.
S slick
47A medium (lower the # softer)
