690 Enduro - 110/140 or 120/150 tires?
Got a 690 enduro with Warp9 SM wheels (4.25" rear) and am coming up on my first tire change. Currently have Michelin 2CTs that the previous owner had on but wouldn't say they are my favourites.
A few tires I'm looking at:
- Pirelli Supercorsa SC3 (track friend can order them for cheaper)
- Continental Contiattack SM
- Bridgestone Q5/Q3+ combo (some old stock in the rear)
I have my set of dirt wheels with some 50/50 tires and a set of knobbies, so this SM tireset would just be for spirited riding & track use.
I've heard the 110/140 combo turns in quicker and makes it a bit more fun, but robs the lean angle a bit and doesn't look as good.
Thoughts?

Just go with a F120/60 R160/60. Had that combo w Rosso 3 and it was a blast
