I have a pair of diablo corsa III's ready to go, just gotta throw 'em on. I think I might stretch the dunlops out till a little closer to when I go to the track, don't wanna kill the profile at all.


That's pretty high for the track, especially for PP's, no? I think someone told me a michelin rep told them to run like 26/29 or something like that.
I think I went down to 32/34 at the track. I like the higher pressure better. There's more weight pushing on that tire than a 170lbs rider. The extra pressure is better for me. I run my Pilot Races lower though.
