i've been running 70mm 78a tarantula STPs up front and 75mm 73a avilas (non-blackops) in the back lately.

MUCH more acceleration and the ability to maintain speed up slight inclines, less fear of wheelbite, i like. haven't noticed any real sluggishness from the Avilas in the rear, and the setup still seems to get up to a good clip.

only (small) bummer is the slight loss of cushiness up front and of course the lower kingpin...just gotta remember to respect curbs and driveways a little more. Smile
