I had the Diablo Rossos on as my last set. I was pretty happy with them, they provide good consistent grip wet or dry. I got about 14000ks out of them. But I seem to be light on my tyres. Mainly commuting each day with the occasional weekend thrash. Did 1 track day on them.
Have just put the new Michelin Pilot Pure on and I think they're a much better tyre. They are more compliant than the Pirellis they don't crash over cat eyes as much, and provide more side grip confidence. They may not be quite as consistent in the wet as the Pirellis but it would only be a marginal difference.
