Interesting. I can understand how the Rossa Corsas would be better in wet due to the tread being designed to channel more water at a lean. But my understanding is that the SP's are constructed of a soft mono compound vs the Rossa which has the same soft compound at the shoulders, but a harder one in the middle. So in a straight line I would have thought the SP would be just as good if not better?

Another option is the Bridgestone S20 EVO. Just grabbed a set for the Spring to replace the toasted RS10's on my 1199 now. They come in a 200/55, have plenty of grip for the street and are considerably better than the Supercorsas in the wet. I ran a set of the 1st gen S20's on it before with a 195/55 rear; they worked well aside from the minor TC issues caused by the 195 tire. With the compound and casing changes to the EVO's, I expect them to be a great street tire.

There was a big comparison from "žmopedreifen" of all new sport tires (Bridgestone S21, Conti Sport Attack 3, Pirelli Rosso 3) and the Metzeler m7rr . The result: You can buy what you want. They are all on an excellent level, very high grip and better durability than ever. I tried last year the Supercorsa SP, the Conti Sport Attack lI and the M7RR on the street, the SC 1 & 2 and the Dunlop KR on the track. There was no bad tire, except the Supercorsa SP while it was raining (but with the best agility and grip when it"˜s dry). On the street you will be happy with all of the new versions of sport tires. No need for hypersport models like the Supercorsa SP on the street. I will give the Conti CSA lll a try due to experimental curiosity and because l like that this tire don't need to be run in.
