The tyres will be fine mate, ride quality depends on how good the kit is. You get what you pay for at the end of the day.

Mine's 60mm all round, the front is ok (Spax springs and shocks) but the back has Spax shocks (set to full stiffness - adjuster is seized ) and Gmax shocks - it's horribly bouncy
