It's time to put some new rubber boots on my P2. I currently have Conti Navigators on but I'm now looking towards either Heidenau K58s or Schwalbe Weathermans.
Any views/comments on pro's and cons for each welcomed.

I've had the Heidenau and Scwalbe.
I'll always go for the Schwalbe over the others,just my preference.
The Heidenau were very good and grippy in all weathers but I only got 2000 miles on the rear tyre and getting much more on the Schwalbe with as much grip.
Also I kept winning Schwalbe tyres in raffles so I've got loads to use an
yway
No doubt everyone will have their own opinion

I do not try to explain why I ride Lambrettas,
For those who understand, no explanation is necessary,
For those who don't, no explantion is possible.

I'm looking for a replacement to the Weatherman I've got on the rear of my P2 after noticing it's rubbing the clutch cover although there doesn't seem to be many people out there with the same problem.
At the moment I've put an S1 on there which gives more clearance but I'm not keen on it.
