Which tire would be best for me. I ride the street. I would like to make it to a track this summer, but as I mentioned previously all my riding is street riding. I want the best tire for my money. But I am a little confused between the two tires. Which one would you guys/girls recomend. Thanks. | ||

Diablo for the street. Corsa for the track. The Diablo will handle the heat cycles over and over again, the Corsas aren't made to handle more than a few heat cycles. The Diablos handle the rain better as well. | ||

i run the parelli diablo's. excellent street tire. not sure how long they last as i burn a couple sets off the bike per season,  but the grip is just AWSOME. i have never run the corsica's but i'm sure they are a great tire also. just not as much life as they are softer compound tires. hope it helps some. | ||

Its all in what "YOU" feel that gives you more confidence in your riding. I'd have to say for average and above average street riding "Diablo's" are killer for the street. Get more miles too. Diablo Corsa's are more of a track but also street tires. You won't get as many miles out of the Corsa's but they are nice and "Super sticky" I've ran both at the track... Took 3rd out of 21 in a mock-up race with Diablo Corsa's, everyone else were running D.O.T race tires some even used race slicks with tire warmers. | ||

Diablo Strada's for longevity and have even had sport touring tires on the track and kept it upright. | ||

I ride an City-X with the Pirelli Scorpion Synchro's and these tires are fantastic. They look nice with the groovy profile and stick to the road as if they where glued to it. In cold wet winter conditions they are full of confidence. On dry track they stick so hard that you can corner faster than the others. Last tuesday, a biker on a honda cbr600 tried to follow me and landed in the scenery with his bike, (more damage to his ego than his body). After 15 years on a bike in all weather conditions,(using tires like pirelli dragon corsa and metzler rensport ), Scorpions and a Buell are the best money can get!!  | ||

Pirelli and Metzeler are the same company. Metzeler just released a new tire called the Sportec M3. I like them so far  . | ||

Two new high performance tires made with a view towards track days are the Dunlop Qualifier, and the New Michelin Pilot Powers, the Pilot Power 2CT, with dual compound construction . You might want to investigate these tires in addition to the excellent Pirelli Diablos that are already on your list. |
