I'm not sure where the best place to post this link is so I'll try here. I'm guessing these are Stradas, but I'm not sure. If any one knows which one they are for sure, let me know. I've got I while on my tires, and was planning on staying with Mich. but might try these.

those look like the regular diablos
Fantastic tires, especially in the rain
I still fancy the Michelin's more as they don't harden

The pic is of regular diablos, if it's an accurate pic.

That's a SCREAMIN' price.

I'd be all over that if my tires were more worn than they are, and if I wasn't so
hooked on the traction I get out of the Diablo corsas

Thanks, awesome price. Ordered them. Running these on my motard right now and they are pretty sticky and all around a great tire, even on dirt. They take a while to scrub in though, beware.

Is that the standard size for the Firebolts? The 120 up front, and the 180 rear? Wonder if I can pick 'em up at my local store? It's like 20 minutes from the house.

I was planning on buying the Stradas here in about a month. This is such a great deal, I'm tempted here.

What kind of milage are people getting out of these?

And interex, what do you mean by harden?

If they were Strada's I'd be all over it. But I don't want to have to buy new tires AGAIN this summer.

They've been doing this for years, in the stores and on line. They even have road hazard available in the stores if you catch a nail or something. Get on their mailing list for specials.

Anybody get their tires yet? I was told to keep a very very close eye on them to be sure they aren't factory seconds.

Wolf, I just cancelled my order. After talking to a local guy here who's been installing alot of web ordered tires, he made me think twice. He showed me to sets of displays he had that cam from the web...peeling apart and gouged at the side wall. $250.00 by him installed and balanced, I couldn't pass.

On a side note, I cancelled my order, but 1/2 day later got an email saying it was already sent. That was tuesday. Yesterday, thursday, I received a confirmation that the order just shipped!.and...no tracking number for ups. This is looking sorta half-assed.

Just got mine yesterday. The look fine. I think I am going to take the time to "scuff" the tread and highlight the letters on the sidewalls before I install them.
