On the Xstream, I run a 1.1" Durano (80 psi) on the front, and a 1.25" Fatboy Slick (100 psi) on the back... The Fatboy had steadily been developing a significantly "flatter" ride surface, but no threads were showing through, and my BikeJournal log indicated ~3200 miles on the tire - so I swapped it out for a new one. I was somewhat surprised at the thickness of the main surface that was still left on the old one - it's probably got a good 1000 miles left on it, but I'm going to leave the new one on. Anybody want/need a used 1.25" 559 as a backup? I've already got two other used folding tires I carry as spares. The Durano has ~4000 miles on it so far, and is showing VERY little wear - which isn't unexpected, given the light loading on the front wheel. I've been VERY pleased with both types of tire...
