Totally agree with you there bigshow, but i can only go by what i read. shit, i'm still using the bt56j's!!
Ron Solomon at Balls convinced me to get the Diablo corsa's when we had a chat a few weeks back. The mag just added some strength to the decision. He's been using them and swears by them, but is also eagerly awaiting the arrival of the diablo super corsa's. As I'm only used to the bt-56's, I'm sure i'll be more confident and happier witht he pirelli's.
As for the matched pair/different cornering lines - the article does explain the whole story. The reason for the lack of grooves on the middle and extreme outside on the rear is that the front clears the water in a straight line, and no-one would fully bank in the wet, so more rubber was used for more grip in the dry. The front on the other hand is fully grooved.
Either way, they've got to be better than the stockies, and I havent heard any consistent reviews on any other tyre out there, so I'm gettin some Pirelli's.
