Ok, so when I bought my 04 10R this summer, It came with the Pirelli Diablo upercorsa's on them. Looking at pics of this tire brand new, It doesn't look like the groves in them are deep to begin with and from what I can understand this is a very sticky tire in the dry. I would say the tire has probably 50-60% tread left on it. Another thing is the guy opted to put 180's in the rear because he said he liked the handling of it.
I'm thinking of buying another set of tires to replace these although I could very well use these tires still for a bit more. I wanted to go with the DC 3's instead. From what i gather, the DC 3's would be one step below the diablo supercorsas that I already have. But I think the DC 3's would better suit my street riding needs and possible a time here and there at the track if i decide to next year. I look at the supercorsas as more of a track day tire with street riding as well. Correct me if i'm wrong here.
Another reason I want to change the tires is to change the size back to a 190 BUT i don't know if i should run the 50's or 55's. To add to the dilema, there's a local shop that has a REALLY good deal on the 50's for the DC 3's and i know i wont be able to get a better price on these any other time so i'm wondering if i should jump on this now or don't settle and do it right the first time and just get a set of 55's because i hear better things about going with a 55 than a 50.
I'd like to know what you guys think and would suggest in terms of the tire vs tire, size situation, and if i should jump on the deal for the 50 instead of a 55.
thanks!!
