Pirelli Rosso's......:d rool:

no... I have the Diablo Strada's... the sport touring ones... and after 1500 miles of freeway... and 500 twistys... they're just very slightly flat spotted...

I'm very pleased with them so far...

It was a mistake on the distributor's part that led to the Diablo and Diablo Rosso going on mine. I wanted the Stradas, but they got a rear Strada and a front Diablo in. So I opted to go with the Rosso on the rear to match the softer compound.

Only about 500 miles total on them- with 100 or so being track. Not enough to see any flat spot.
