Seriously, don't buy perelli tyres!

this is what my tyres look like after a whole 6 months. How disappointing! I even keep it in my temp. controlled garage...

Are they cracks or mold marks? They look like like tyre mold marks to me, which is normal for most tyre manufacturers. Most of the Pirellis I get have these marks on them.

By the way it's spelled tyres lol.

First off, let's address tyres. I live in the USA, born here, long live differences, but nobody should ever forget England spoke the language long before it was spoken here! I'm all for differences, who wants one world, one culture? But, if someone says tyres is more correct, I'll never say "not it's not!" It's about respect for elders!

OK, tyres: I've been a Pirelli fan for the last 8 years, but I just picked up a Dragon Supercorsa for my SMC, SC2 compound, and damn, ij just does not want to heat up quickly. I wondered if they changed the compound, I never had problems heating this up on the road. So now I wonder about trying a different model, or SC1 compound. I want the quickest heating tyre for the street.

Might be hijacking the thread, but it seemed to fit the general subject of lack of satisfaction of a new Pirelli tyre.

Dont be hate'n I have a strech of twisty canyon I now know like the palm of me hand what pisses me off is I still cant get a knee down I have ground the toe sliders of my new SIDI's and 1/4 inch off the right side of the bellypan/chin spoiler but still cant seem to get a knee down. My bro Jbob has no prob sticking his knee to the tarmack.... even on my SDR but I cant do it Im doin a track day on the 26th and I will skuff my knee skidders or ride it off the tyres trying



He didnt even wipe out the chicken stripe all the way...... maybe I need to stretch more

But I have to hand it to JB, 20yr of track time will make an old fart fast....
