At DMG Motorsports, we present the Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV in 190/55 ZR17 M/C (75W) TL — the state-of-the-art sport rear tire engineered for supersport, naked, and crossover motorcycle riders who demand the very best on the road. Drawing directly on Pirelli's World Superbike Championship (WSBK) expertise, the Diablo Rosso IV delivers superb grip while braking, a thrust boost at extreme lean angles, and brilliant traction exiting every corner — all while maintaining outstanding performance in both wet and dry conditions. Whether you're attacking winding mountain roads or commuting through unpredictable weather, this tire is built to rise to the occasion with confidence-inspiring feedback and consistent performance throughout its entire lifecycle.
Features:
- Tri-Compound Rear Construction: The 190/55 ZR17 size features a 5-zone tri-compound layout, including a 100% Carbon Black shoulder compound derived directly from the Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SC endurance racing tire, delivering maximum grip and traction support at full lean angles.
- WSBK-Derived Structure & Profiles: Race-bred multi-radius profiles and a zero-degree steel belt structure — developed from World Superbike Championship know-how — provide agile turn-in, lightning-fast handlebar response, and smooth feedback while cornering.
- Silica-Enriched Multi-Compound: Full Silica compounds are used across all zones, with the soft full-silica mid rubber strip ensuring quick warm-up, consistent grip regardless of lean angle, and reliable performance across all weather conditions.
- FLASH™ Tread Pattern Design: Pirelli's signature FLASH™ icon — a pair of central grooves — provides directional and wear stability, while FLASH™ tails of varied length outline mid-lean grooves to deliver tyre flexibility, efficient water evacuation, and absolute wear uniformity.
- Outstanding Wet & Dry Performance: The tread pattern features a large slick area on the shoulders for excellent grip and line-holding at extreme lean angles, while the optimised void/fill ratio in the central area ensures better wear regularity, high-speed stability, and confident wet-road performance.
- Cap & Base Scheme: The thermal balance provided by the Cap & Base construction allows the shoulder compound to deliver support at full lean and manage the torque generated by the latest generation 200hp+ superbikes and hypernakeds.
- Designed for High-Performance Motorcycles: Purpose-built for supersport, hypernaked, and crossover bikes, setting the benchmark in its segment for riders who demand high levels of grip, precise feedback, and great handling on all types of asphalt.
- Tubeless Radial Construction: Tubeless (TL) fitment in a 190/55 ZR17 radial format with a (75W) speed rating — optimised for 17-inch rims on high-performance street machines.
