yea nah wont be for road use. was think about it but if i do that will get new rims an chuck road tyres on it. nah this is just for use at the local track which is most of the time very sandy. intermediate track is a mainly compacted dirt... i want my tyre to last a little longer so am thinking of going the M12 on the front. S12 looks like a great way to go but reckon itll get eaten pretty quick. the metzler mc4 looks like the right way to go for a rear wheel. been doing a little research an reading reviews on each tyre...

I ran the Dunlop756 on the rear of my WR450F and was very durable.
My mate had a Mich on the rear of his KTM530 and knocked the knobs off the tyre  on sandy,rocky,hardpacked.
Then decided to try the replacement for the dunlop 756 on the rear called  Geomax and was very happy with it.
I changed the 756 to the Geomax at the start of the year and after 2 rides,the wear and grip was very good...then sold the bike. ;D
