Who did you talk to at Sport Honda? Talk to Derrick and mention SBA. Also, are you bringing just the rim or the whole bike? Cheaper to bring just the wheel.

Try to match the same make/model as the front tire if you can unless you plan on getting a brand new matching set of something else.

No Pirelli Also, be carefull when ordering from discounted sites or where ever...alot of the tires are old. Even Ron Ayers, they ran a killer deal a couple years ago on Pirellis, picked up 2 sets, they were 4 years old.

http://www.swmototires.com/ has great prices & free delivery. I've never gotten old tires from them either. Http://Sportbiketrackgear.com has great deals on tires, too $265 for a set of Michellin pilot Races
I change tires myself, I'll change yours for a six pack of (good) beer per tire. You have to come to my shop outside of Philly, though.
Cheers,
Lance
