Well, all things the same, Pirelli tires are better anyway. But the trackday at Jennings was not a NESBA track day and the vendor was not a NESBA vendor. Your pricing at NESBA days and through NESBA vendors will be better.wflores;35133 wrote: I was at JenningsGP mid Jan 09' and needed tires. Pirelli vendor was at the track and it cost me $423 for set of Diablo Supercorsa's 120/180. Big leap! Still a fan of Pirelli, but Dunlop's might be a good option if they are priced the same.
Better than Dunlops? Maybe street tire wise but I'll take an N-tec over a Supercorsa any day of the week. Ask Jeff Wood, Ty Howard, Dustin Domiguez, Matt Hall, Tim Vosnick , Greg Anderson....The list goes on and on.LMsports;36328 wrote: Well, all things the same, Pirelli tires are better anyway.

We just ordered our second shipment of over 100 tires already this year!
The 002 and 002 RS are both excellent for trackdays while the 003's are the best of the 3 and they are priced very well.celticninja;36686 wrote: If they are so high buy Brigdestone BT-002, BT-016 for $239.00 a set or buy BT-003 for $300.00 plus, yes resession or depression.:agree:
All modern race tires are good. I think that it comes down to personal preference and the feel the rider likes. Saying you'll take a Dunlop tire over a Pirelli tire is like saying you'd take a GSXR over a Yamaha or vice-versa. Any of those guys you mentioned above could win on Pirelli, Michelin, or Bridgestone, and it can't be disputed that Pirelli has shown really well in AMA racing over the last few years. Besides, I think Rob's opinion as an accomplished racer is just a valid as yours, and his opinion comes with AMA Formula Extreme racing experience. It also doesn't hurt that he's a NEBSA Pirelli vendor who happens to offer the members great deals on great tires.HardenThicke;36878 wrote: Better than Dunlops?

I'm a Michelin man and hell yeah I'll take a GSXR over a Yamaha! I've just never had the best of luck on Pirelli's. The Dunlops are great tires but with the N-Tecs only coming in a 190 it makes them a far less desirable tire for a 600 to me. I agree that it's personal preference as once a tire bites someone in the butt they are prone to trying one of the other brands. If that said tires boosts their confidence then they will perform better on it. Biggest issues with Dunlops aside from the size are the price and terrible contingency. I'm not good with colors so Pirelli's always confuse meJRA;36886 wrote: All modern race tires are good. I think that it comes down to personal preference and the feel the rider likes.
