I too love the corsa's, but wear is an issue.
Need to keep something on it that is trackable, but will wear longer. Not sure if I'll go to a PP or a PR2...

I got great wear out of my Pilot Powers. I'd like to try the 2CT's as well.

Define "great"

and how much commuting did/do you do?
My riding is 85% commuting, and 15% twisty riding.

I would go with the roads or another high mileage tire.

Yeah, the road 2 is probably a good call for that.

I run Pilot Roads on my SV. Price is good and i can get about 14,000 miles out 1 back tire. Good high mileage tire not as sticky as pilot powers but good enough for what i use them for and are rated better for the rain also.

Commuting: Zero miles. All twisty. Almost 5000 on them now...good for atleast another 1.5-2000 miles.
