Desert Racer sounds, sweet, sounds like all the more reason to buy them.

I've heard great things about the Star Specs just about everywhere. I might get them next time around but for the time being R6s will do and PS2 should give me what I need around town.

I would recommend looking at Continental's "contact" line of performance tires, along with Nitto's .
