The Pirelli Diablo™ Supercorsa SP V2 is a DOT-approved tire engineered for high-performance track use and spirited street riding. It serves riders who demand maximum grip and handling precision, whether carving corners on a closed circuit or enjoying weekend rides on demanding roads. This tire is a step up from the V1, and it is acceptable to mix and match V1 and V2 tires.
The Diablo™ Supercorsa SP V2 prioritizes exceptional grip and handling over extended tread life. Its design emphasizes a large contact patch for increased grip at steep lean angles. The tire's construction incorporates a high modulus fiber carcass, which provides a stiffer structure for improved synergy between the compound and carcass. This results in enhanced resistance to deformation, predictable wear, and reliable traction during cornering and straight-line acceleration. The rear tire utilizes Pirelli's patented EPT (Enhanced Patch Technology) matched with a tri-zone compound to optimize the contact patch, further boosting grip and handling.
The tread pattern of the Diablo™ Supercorsa SP V2 features a "single element" design, which increases the slick shoulder area by 24% compared to the previous Diablo Supercorsa. This design enhancement maximizes the contact area available for dry grip while still providing adequate water evacuation in wet conditions. The compounds strike a balance between mileage and grip for ultra-high-performance. The 58 treadwear rating indicates a softer compound formulated for superior adhesion. The tire is derived from the World Superstock 1000 Championship.
