Pirelli Motorcycle Tyres Australia | DiscountMcTyres
Think about a road like the Oxley Highway, with corner after corner and a surface that's warm and grippy by mid-morning, but still slightly damp in the shaded turns. This is exactly the kind of riding Pirelli built the Angel GT II for. Pirelli has supplied tyres to the World Superbike Championship for over twenty years, where grip through fast, repeated corners is the main thing being tested. On a road like the Oxley, you feel that in a simple way: the bike holds its line through a blind corner instead of feeling unsure of itself.
Discount Motorcycle Tyres carries the full current Pirelli motorcycle range, from the Diablo Rosso and Angel GT lines through to the Scorpion Trail and Night Dragon ranges, across all popular front and rear sizes. Stock is checked and reordered weekly, so what's listed on the site reflects what's actually on the shelf, not a supplier catalogue that may be out of date.
One reason riders choose us over other sellers: we check the DOT date code on every Pirelli tyre before it ships, so you're not getting stock that's sat in a warehouse for years. Fresh manufacture date, fitted or shipped fast, at a price that beats most Pirelli dealers.
Technical Differentiators
The Diablo Rosso Corsa II uses a multi-compound layout: two rubber compounds across three zones on the front tyre, and three compounds across five zones on the rear. The centre band uses a firmer compound for stability and tread life when running upright in a straight line. The shoulder zones use a softer compound for grip once the bike is leaned over. The Scorpion adventure range uses a reinforced casing designed to handle the extra load of luggage and a pillion — this is standard across most adventure-touring tyres.
Ride the Diablo Rosso Corsa II on the Putty Road on a hot afternoon and that shoulder compound is doing its job through every corner, but it's also the part that wears fastest in the heat — so a rider doing that loop weekly will get through a rear tyre sooner than someone commuting on the M1. Head west instead, onto gravel toward somewhere like the Gibb River Road, and the Scorpion is built for a different day altogether: the tread holds a line on loose gravel instead of sliding under the front wheel, at the cost of feeling less sharp than the Diablo on smooth tar back home.
