Hi all, Need new tyres for my 916sp any recommendations on brands please what you all using at the moment. Also any recommendations for a mobile fitting service. Thanks
Need to know what you’re intending to do with the bike, but if it’s general road then any of the usual Metzeler M9RR, Pirelli Rosso IV, Bridgestone S23, will do you just fine.
I went for Pirelli Rosso's on my 916... yes, they work but next time I'll definitely be going for Supercorsa's. You might find this helpful? https://twotyres.co.uk/ducati-748-and-916-tyre-guide/ Please let us know how you get on.
Thanks coda I’ll probably go for the Bridgestone S23 then, it’s just for general fast rd use no track days .
Thanks todders I’ll check the prices as it’s only for road use so the supercorsa’s might be a waist on me to be honest .
I have Diablo Rossos (3) on my 916 SP OEM wheels. Perfect on the road with great mileage. And Super Corsas (2) on the Marchesini mags I use on this bike in summer (dry and hot weather). When correctly heated, SC 2s grip is absolutely fantastic, even on the road.
Pirelli Rosso IV on my 916SP3, also on my 888SP4 - seem to work well on both bikes, and quickened up the steering on the 888 after the Michelins.
Michelin Road 6, no they're not sexy but they're a bloody good all round road tyre that don't need too much warming up to be sticky, and not half bad on the track either should one care venture there on them...
