I highly recommend Michelin Pilot Road4, it's very sticky in sunny or rain whatever - like you are glued on paved road. Best tires for me.

Hi Folks,
New here, hello!
Just wondering, my NC750X's rear tire is ending it's career soon and I'm looking for replacement. I'm looking to see if anyone has any experience fitting a bigger tire. I live in Costa Rica, and our roads are terrible, filled with pot holes and just outright bad roads all over the place. A bigger tire would give me a slightly better chance at surviving hitting holes and a little more cushion around our bad roads.
I saw someone say they put in a 150/60 tire which is a bit higher.
Anyone else with any similar experiences?
Thank you all.
It's rare that anyone on the street can use all of a tire's performance so fitting oversize tires may be of little consequence but tires are sized to rim widths and the rim for a 150mm cross section tire pulls the beads of a tire 30mm wider too close together for optimal shape. If the tire is free and hurts no one - what the heck? If someone pays more for less performance - that's not smart.
I have noticed that heavier tires drag things down just a tad. The more power one has the less that matters...
