Sizes
I run a 110/70/17 front and a 140/70/17 rear as they are the closest to stock as you can get.
Cost
They're also cheaper than the bt45's too at £120-130 a pair rather than £150.
Tyre profile
The profile is much more "aggressive" so they'll tip into corners much more easily too, but they're much more stable on the edge of the tyre than the bt45's
Mileage
Due to the nature of the tyre profile you tend to use different areas of the tyre more than the bt45 due to the curvature of it. The bt45 is very flat in regards to this so it very quickly squares off even at the higher recommended pressure of 38 cold. I found I get a good few thousand miles out of a rear where as the bt45 i could eat through in just about 3k miles.
I'm sure I'm missing a lot of points but if anyone has any questions about them I'll reply when I can.
