Default Pirelli Diablo Rosso

First off I need new tires becuse my back got a nail and my front is just plainly getting bad. I saw some pirelli diablo rosso for about $260 shipped for my F2. Just want to know if you guys have tried these tires and know how they well the wear and feel. Or if anyone has knows of any good tires for less. Thanks for the help.

Have run the Diablo Corsa and the Diablo and think they are fine street tires ... haven't tried the Rosso. Absolute favorite is Pilot Powers but you won't get a set for $260.

I can get PP's for $250 from that site and about $280 for the 2ct's, just wanna know the wear life on them and for the $30 or so would it be better just to go with the 2ct's?

The 2CTs dont last any longer than a reg PP. The 2CTs just have softer sides. Mileage is anywhere from 3k to 6k on avg depending on how hard you ride.

I started with Dunlop Qualifiers and loved them but they would not cope with a road trip I had planned so I put Diablo Corsa 3's on. Was a bit concerned cos the Dunlops were so sticky but the Pirellis were great and did the distance and more. They have now done 3k and look good for another 1500 at least. Plenty grip, were good through wet as well as dry. Just dont do daft stuff and see what they wont do.
