xb12scg 11000km with the rear Diablo T and it`s looking flat in the middle. The 2ct is worth 131$ and the Corsa 3 is 176$. 60% highway and 40% twisties. Thanks for your opinions of the better tire.

Go with the 2ct since you do 60% highway riding and save the $40 for something else.

I don't know which 2ct you mean, but I got about 4500kms out of a Corsa III. That's close to 3000 miles.

I have a Pilot Road 2 2ct, and I have about 13,000kms on it. This is about 7000miles. I could easily get another couple thousand out of it. But, I try to put on new shoes at the start of the season.

I rode both tires the same way and equally aggressive. The diablo had much better grip when cold, but once warmed up the michelin more than met my needs.

I'd like to point out that I have a buddy with a 12ss and he has close to 6000 miles on his corsa IIIs.

Yes, I was referring to the Pilot Road 2ct. I want a dual compound tire so I can use the highway to get to the fun stuff and not compromise traction. It`s usually cold and wet here. I don`t care about the price, I want the best tire.
