Part worn Pirellis on SV?
hey,
i've been offered a pair of part worn pirelli dragon supercorsa pro's for my sv which have been used to test a racing sv at mallory and cookstown... they look ok to me but i thought dragon's were replaced with diablo's like ages ago... does anyone know when dragon's were discontinued cos if the rubber is old i'm not taking them back 160/60x17 sc2 and front 120/70x17 sc1 if this helps

Re: Part worn Pirellis on SV?
There should be a manufacture date near the profile size in a 1/2" square box
Dragons are discontinued but there is a lot kicking around

Re: Part worn Pirellis on SV?
What do you require from a tyre?
These are likely to be cheap as they are used race scrubs, but their life will be short, and they may grip less well in colder wet conditions than a more road biased tyre. Jambo
