Chris,
I always forget to reply all, so I'll tell you what I told Larry. I
recently put a new set of Michelin Rain Force MX-4's on my Bugeye. They
seem fine, are high mileage rated, and were relatively inexpensive. I was
looking to stay with the 145R13 and find a good mileage rating while staying
relatively inexpensive (they were one of very few tires I could find in that
size). They've worked fine so far. Granted, I have a stock 1275 and
haven't been in any heavy downpours.
