Took RSVR to work today, was cold and wet on the way home. think the supercorsa pros are knackered, and are crap in the wet - sliding on every roundabout and white line:puke
Anyway, i can;t choose betwen the Michelin Pilot Power 2ct or the Pirelli Diablo 3, :O.
What are you running?:roll opinions welcome.
 
Running 2ct's after being on the pirelli 3 since new, going back to the pirelli's miss them lots
 
I had Pilot Powers on my old Mille - Very grippy but I didn't like the triangular profile of the tyre, it always felt as though it wanted to drop in too quickly.

Have 014's on my Factory - Again, very grippy but have a more rounded profile and give far more confidence.

I'm running a 180 profile rear by the way....
 
I got 2 CTs on mine. Which reminds me I still need to get a free new front as mine has a recall on it...

As for Supercorsas.. There are crap in the wet anyway. I use them on my race bike and when there is a sudden downpoar everyone rides round like were on ice!
 
dont get the 2Ct's,(they dont suit the mille)u want the diablo 111's or Bridgestone. IMHO.
I use 190's, I run off the edge of the 180!! Pressure for road 33f and 36R suit me.
 
Im running 2ct's on mine i get on with them really well! but they don't last very long if your heavy handed tho!
 
are they not dual/triple compound?, I know the diablo 111's last really well.Even when your on it.
 
2 ct's all the way for me! awsome tyre . good grip last a while:thumbup
personal choice if you ask me they are much of a likeness apart from dunlop (not sure on qualifiers) they are crap:biggrin




pirellis are for girlsor people who need all the help they can get:lol
