Tire Combo ???

No problem, but I think the popular combo is the reverse...the 2CT on the front for added grip, and the regular PP on the rear for longer wear. Just something I'd heard, no personal experience! Either way will work! :)

hmm I haven't heard that myself. Something to think about. I need a rear to finish the front and was going to the 2ct. Really would like to try that. Id also like to try the Diablo III at some point.

:agree: I've also heard this but have not tried. Makes more sense this way.

It is more common to run a softer front than rear, mainly beacuse the rears wear faster and you will get more life out of a harder compound rear (in general), but this should be ok......

I still have a ton of wear left on the front and I thought going with the 2CT's would add a bit more grip in and out of the corners?

I have a DCIII on the front and a regular Diablo on the rear.

Best tires I've ever run. I did this based upon a conversation with Chris Moon. I explained my bikes rear rim takes a stock 170 rear and a 180 kills turn in. He recommended the combo.

I'm glad I listened.
