That's also what I got on my 08 C109RT till I went DS.

I was watching your rear last week. Almost looked like it was on the edge and then PLOP. Can you feel it as it plops down or does it seem to be a smooth transition?

I went from stock stones to Pirelli route 66. IMO, an awesome tire! Corners well in wet and dry, single and two up. Wear seems to be good since I have 6K on them this season and not very noticeable wear.

It does seem to come back to the vertical a little quicker that the stock tire. Takes a little getting used to.

Hummm, just watching from behind it seemed like you would feel it plop over. Guess you would have to see it yourself.
