well at just about 5300 my corsaIII was done. so cycle gear hooked up with an angel installed w/road hazard for 185otd. just about any new tire will feel better than an old one no doubt. being in florida i had the typical florida flat center. so it turns a lot easier now profile of new vs flat. traction for the way i ride feels the same, i never ever have come even close to maxing out the tires available traction. the one thing i really like that i really didnt like with the corsa is that the tire itself doesn't feel squishy for a lack of better terms. i had the run the pressur eup high 42psi to get the corsa to stiffin up to the point that i didnt feel like i was gonna roll it off the rim and didnt feel the rim moving the sidewalls back and forth. to say the least i am very happy with it and think it'll serve me very well | ||

sure thing so far wet or dry they are good this weekend gonna take a trip to the next town over with a passenger so that will let me know a lot. when i was dropping it off there was a guy with a kz6? i think or something like that that had over 1k on his and it still looked new said same wet or dry felt good. so far i only have the rear and it feels reall well planted doesn't follow grooves or anything handles the broken rough pavement with no complaints | ||

My Corsa III rear is showing steel belts down the middle at 3,500. I have the same problem as Boogi, 95% of my miles are straight ahead and thus the rest of the tire has significantly more rubber left on it. I picked up another Corsa III for $150 since my front still has a bit of life left. I need to find a tire that has the same performance as the Corsa but with a lot more rubber in the middle. A few unexpected trail braking incidents have made me a firm believer in how good these tires are. Or maybe I should just move to the mountains so I can use all of my tires. | ||

I got 5900 miles out of my rear corsa. Still working on my front. I like what I had so I went back to it. (corsa 3.) Dealer wanted $466 installed cause it had a nail. Which they stuck in there. So I found 1 on line for $176. And had a buddy throw it on for $40. } | ||
