This question has probably more threads than anything else. Suggest you do a search "rear tire" and similar terms in the search box upper right corner. Then, come back here and ask a more specific question that you didn't get answered.

I just intstalled a Michelin Defender T+H 205/60/15 just today. The tire shop looked at my wheel with question marks in his eyes but when he put it on the machine he said no problem. He didnt balance it and I wasn’t too concerned. I went out for a 40 mile test drive and had no vibration issues and it handled wonderfully.

So far, ~100 miles, my Cooper CS5 Grand Touring 215/60R15 has been riding great!

Welcome to Spyderlovers. I have been running the General Altimax RT43 and I really like them. 215 60 R15 available on Amazon $75. Handles great in wet and dry conditions

How many more miles on this tire?

We have a little ride tomorrow of about 150 miles and then time to try the General.

 

[DGoebel]

Hundreds of miles as long as there's no rain, or sand or slick surfaces....
I still rode comfortably with this

I've tried a bunch of rear tires and so far my favorite is the Cooper CS5.

If I had this tire, I’d put another 3-5,000 miles on it. I change them our when I see bare cord showing in the center, but even then, there is always much outside thread left. But I ride Solo.

The reason you have tread left on the outside is because you are only riding on the center. :banghead:
