I got out for a nice ride yesterday and I've now got about 200 miles on the new tires. They are scrubbing in nicely. So far I really like them, but admittedly I haven't really pushed them that much yet. In addition to the added grip these tires should provide, the wider rear tire is much nicer looking than the skinny stock tire, so that is an added bonus.
