unless you are going to the track I dont see any reason to get the 2ct. If you are a daily rider on your bike on the streets I would just go with the PP

I was going to say the same, go with the regular ones. I have the PP Race Mediums that I ride on the street.. They are awesome and super sticky but do not last very long at all...

Pirelli Diablo Rossi's

gettin mine next week.

cheaper than the PP2CT's
last longer.
stickier
and 2 years newer technology (they just came out this year)

only thing is they have a lower silica compound in them so they dont fair very well in the wet as the pp2ct has a very high silica compound, allowing you to drag knee in the wet. LOL

read the reviews.. very interesting

front and rear?

the rossis are on the same level as the 2ct's
when i said cheaper i meant comparing to the 2ct's haha

i work at a bike shop so i just get them there..

kneedraggers.com has them for $254. i dont know your zip code so i dont know how much shipping is, but im sure one of the site vendors may be able to work you a deal..

and they are the diablo rosso's i said rossi the first time LOL!
