Michelin Anakee Tires
Written by goldwingman40 on 6/29/2010 at 05:52 pm

I find that running the front at 38 - 40 psi and rear at 40 - 42 psi
virtually eliminate cupping on Metzelers. I will find out on the new Avon
Roadrider front and Shinko 230 rear when I get some miles on them.

I've tried the trick Leland posted about higher pressures in the front and it
did stop the cupping. I try to keep the front at 36 psi. Just curious.
