At DMG Motorsports, we present the Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV Corsa in 180/55 ZR 17 M/C (73W) TL — the fiercer, track-focused evolution of the acclaimed Diablo Rosso IV. Built for thrill seekers and performance enthusiasts who demand more than a standard supersport tire, this rear tire combines race-derived compounds, slicker tread geometry, and advanced structural engineering to deliver unmatched dry-weather grip, razor-sharp cornering response, and consistent performance across multiple hard riding sessions. Whether you're attacking canyon roads or pushing hard on a track day, the Diablo Rosso IV Corsa is engineered to keep you in full control at the limit.
Features:
- Fiercer Supersport Performance: The slicker tread pattern combined with new compounds delivers higher grip in dry conditions, making it the most aggressive version of the Diablo Rosso IV lineup.
- Slicker Tread Design with FLASH Groove Evolution: The tread pattern maximises the contact patch for increased grip; centre grooves are a slicker evolution of Pirelli's patented FLASH groove, delivering directional stability, wear regularity, and water drainage at speed.
- Dual Compound Layout: Features wide soft shoulders paired with a harder full-silica central layer — the centre compound delivers excellent grip, fast cornering, and early throttling, while the harder centre layer provides high-speed stability and abrasion resistance.
- Racing-Derived Side Compound: The softer side compound is related to the SC compounds used on Pirelli racing products; this 100% Carbon Black compound delivers fast warm-up and incredible grip during extreme accelerations beyond 25° lean angle.
- Stiff Chord Technology: Stiffer chords with a lower end-count leave more room for the compound, enhancing tire conformability and road contact feeling — allowing full control even when pushing hard.
- Tuned Pretension Structure: A tuned pretension ratio between the 0° chords and the plies creates differentiated structural stiffness across the profile for an outstanding riding experience.
- Large Slick Shoulder Area: Provides outstanding cornering support at extreme lean angles, while reduced lateral grooves put more rubber on the road at mid-lean for increased tire solidity and higher lateral thrust.
- World Superbike-Derived Contours: Multi-radius sharp contours deliver an immediate transition from lean to upright and quick changes in direction, with a flatter shoulder portion for high grip and precise line holding while cornering.
- Synchronized Front/Rear Geometry: The rear tire follows a similar geometry to the front to ensure a perfectly synchronized behaviour as a matched set.
- Size & Rating: 180/55 ZR 17 M/C (73W) TL — tubeless radial construction with a 73 load index and ZR/W speed rating, purpose-built for high-displacement sport and supersport motorcycles.
