strada is more of a sport touring tire but still have good grip...diablo is the 70 street/30 track tire, corsa is the 30 street/ 70 track tire. then you get to the supercorsas, etc...
Unless you ride a lot of track or a lot of touring, the Diablo is probably the best choice. I just put on some PP's and I love them. Whichever way you go, you will be pleased. There isn't a wrong decision here.

if you corner hard...i think you should get the tires to match.

I've been happy with my Diablos. I don't race but I like to ride semi-aggresively on the weekends and ride to workduring the week.

I've only had them about 1200 miles so I don't know about expected life.

sounds like you need diablos, but don't mix and match tires front to rear.

my rear tire got a nail in it and couldn't be plugged. my front is a d207 and a friend at the dealership that club races suggested a qualifiersince it would closely match the profile of the d207
