RE: METZLER 880
I run just slightly higher than the recommended pressure that cHarley listed. Just a pound or two. Seems to work fairly well. I got 16,000 miles on my first rear Metz, and the front now is approaching 20,000 miles, it's still in great condition. I didn't really reazlize the front has that many miles, until just now. But it sure does. But, you're not gonna get anywhere near that many miles running the 21" tire.
