I have Radials on the rear and Bias ply on the front. Haven't been a problem Rear are TA radials and the front is Michelin pilot active
My wrench is telling me Michelin Commander II front. My wallet is voting for Bridgestone BT 45 rear. lets vote!!!
You want Bias ply front and radial rear that is the correct combo. BT45 with 40 lbs is my vote.
Michelin on front.
It depends on what brand of oil and what weight you are using...:pepper::pepper::pepper:
Have done this for years with no problem. RIDE SAFE

Bought the BT 45. I have a week to agonize over forward or reverse.
Flip a coin and do it!

My thoughts exactly. I've run three BT45 reversed. Next one is going on forward. I want to satisfy my curiosity. I haven't looked at the tire since getting back from Eureka Springs but I'm guessing it will be in the next month or so.
BTW.... Skuuter we missed you and your bride. It was a GREAT gathering but wish more could have enjoyed the FUN !!!!! I'm about caught up here at home so I'll start on the video soon... :xszpv::xszpv:

[B]THANKS...ThumbUp [/B]......We definitely missed Everyone and missed being there, and weren't because of circumstances beyond Our control. Just didn't feel natural for it to be happening and us still in Estill Springs, Tennessee....:(....oh well, We're already making Plans and setting Vacation Dates for 2015....We will see Everyone then.....:pepper::pepper::pepper:
What ever you choose for tires up front, use Dyna beads to balance the tire. You will never be happier!
I have to check, but I have 10,000 on my Michelin Pilot Activ reverse with Dyna Beads and it looks brand new. Going for 20,000 and will let you know how it looks. Oh yes, 41psi.
Good luck.
What mileage did you get on your BT?

BT 45 front, Michelin Defenders rear! :)
