Track Ridden Street Bike
I bought these recently to replace my old Battleaxes, BT-016's (not pros), and they are awesome, very grippy on the track and a quick warm up time. I have not had them long enough to know tread life, but I don't ride street often so that's not much of a problem. Overall I love these tires, I have BT-016 PRO's on front and back.

Great all-round tire
This is a great tire I have been using this tire for 4 or 5 years now and I have gone through quite a few of them. They always wear evenly and provide great grip even in the wet. I have tried many different tires from different manufacturers. Bridgestone is the only tire I buy now and the bt-016 was my favorite tire for street use until the new Bridgestone s20 evo came out. It's better in every way, Dry grip, wet grip, wearability. The bt-016 is an awesome tire but technology in tires is always advancing and now I go with the s20 evo
