0/55 17 Tire Review Highlights

Michelin Power 5 rated 74% while driving a Triumph Speed Triple
Driving on a combination of roads for 6 spirited miles
180/55 zr17 power 5 on a Triumph Speed Tripple 1050. Great all around tire. Wet or dry. Tips in to the corners with confidence. change line mid corner no problem. Starting to square of at 6,500-ish miles. They warm up fast. One of the best tires (in my opinion) for mileage to grip ratio. Sudden downpour ,standing water is no problem. Not a track day tire and thats ok. If you are a typical Sport bike rider with average or better than average riding skill these tires wont let you down. I am replacing my rear tire next week. Frontm still looks great. Expecting a 2 to 1 tire ratio.

Great Tires. Safe, Quiet, Secure and Good Handling on all types of road conditions. Driven over 50K miles on these tires in a 2019 Sonata. Replaced OEM with these tires when car was new. Very Pleased with them. Would buy again.

Barum Bravuris 5HM rated NAN% while driving a Toyota
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 easy going miles
Surprised how noisy on some surfaces, very comfortable overall. Lack of feedback at limit is more the car than the tire. Wet traction is not great, wet bracking seems find. For the price hard too beat.

Michelin Power Cup 2 rated 76% while driving a
Driving on a combination of roads for 1500 spirited miles
Excellent dry weather tire that heats up fast. These tires are so confidence inspiring on spirited rides, until any amount of moisture hits the road. The PC2’s are the best dry weather tires I’ve used, ever. The rear is starting to square off a bit at 1,500 miles, with wear being as expected with a tire that keeps you so planted, at any angle. They are selling out everywhere, with all the major online retailers being out of stock. I highly recommend for the experience, not so much on the tread wear. It only gave me the option of mid or end of life on tire and with the rear being closer to the later, I picked end, but I’ll definitely get a few hundred miles on the rear, with over a thousand or so on the front.

Pirelli Diablo Rosso II rated NAN% while driving a Yamaha
Driving on mostly country roads for 0 spirited miles
I am now on my third set of Rosso 2's, and I could not be anymore disappointed than I am right now. Three sets in 2 years? First set, cupped after two months, second set, rear tire cupped less but front tire major cupping. Third set, less than a year old and the front tire is majorly cupped. After all of these years of promoting and pushing Pirellis for riders, I am going to have to bow out and go to a competitor.
