These things are featherweight, sidewalls feel as thick as a condom.
For the price of the rears ($50 more than DR2 in Au, $240, fronts are the same $160)
Front looked like vey tough to fit, but they balanced with just 5 grams.
Set them at Pirelli pressures of 27R/31F on the warmers,
Went out and did 10 laps x 2.4km, no scrubbing in, straight into it.
They could stick to the roof.
Rubber so nice you could eat it
10 laps on the front,
Pressure too high but felt more precise than the chunky wet weather DR2's.
60 laps, kept dropping pressures ended up a low 26R/27F
nice even wear.
60 laps on the front,
Still got the hairs in the middle,
Hard to get my head around having to be 4psi less than DR2 but proof is they worked on a cool 19-21C degree day
ended up liking them more than the rears.
Rain spots in the final session so cut it short and quit while ahead.
Love them, cant wait for the next 60 laps (6 sessions) next time.
Will have to look after the rears (price),
DR2's last up to 9 days, might get that out of these if looked after properly with temps and pressures.
