Hello Speed
in england we only have 10" 350 widely available but the odd team import them in different sizes.
we use them front and rear the rear works good as it aids ground clearance stops the cases and the exhaust from grinding down be careful with pressures they make all the differance approx 18psi front and 24 psi rear but temperature testing with a laser will find you optimums from track to track
there available as a malossi part in 350 10 and these im sure will be the genuine made in japan tyres,some have been sold which are made by hfr(duro) for dunlop and although im yet to test them dont think theyll be as good they look and feel different to the japan ones
still love the sava,s much more than the dunlop and dont know if your aware but we,ve now got some slick sava,s to test

Yes they do make 3.00x10 TT91 GP, by the way for what rim are you talking about? for zip i know only 3.50x10 TT91GP, For the aprilia sonic they did produce i think 100/90 or 80 -10.
Right now i do have in stock all the 4 sizes, 80/90-10, 3.00x10, 90/90-10 and 3.50x10 all dunlop TT91GP Made in Japan
I just went to Dunlop's web site. They only list;MikkoR said:
1. (3258-57) 80/90-10 - TT91GP Front
2. (3258-59) 90/90-10 - TT91GP Rear
I do not know were you are getting these 3.50x10 or 3.00x10 from. There still is not a part number provided for these size tires.
I will just order 90/90-10 for the front & rear. These tires are for my shop. We use Sava's. They grip better for a 10" rim. We also have the "New" Sava's Slick 10" tires for the Zip's as well. Our container has not arrived yet so we have not tested them either. Please let me know your findings. The compound is supposed to be different. They said it will have better grip & it will last longer.

I can see that you are not a contender in track racing by your answer. I want you to answer this question Mr. bright guy.Kaze said:
Question: Why does a MANUFACTOR give speed ratings on their tires? What is the purpose for this? This tire is rated at 62mph.
I am waiting for you answer.

this is me : (active since 1999)
if you look at regulations for ISC 2005 , you can see that those tyres were obligated.
I dont know why the producer put's those max speed.. but it's one of the best possible tyres to race with (speeds up to 110 MPH)
in all european championships, more then 70% off the drivers use these tyres..
(never seen one collapse because of speed)

Speaking of speed ratings, is there a link to a chart or table explaining the ratings and numbering systems on the sidewall? I just picked up a set of Michelin Pilot Sport SC tires, 120/70-12 and 130/70-12 and there are a few numbers on the sidewall that I don't understand what they mean. Thanks.
