Default Pirelli Corsa N'1s

Guys

Couldn't find any Pirelli Corsa N0 anywhere in Europe.

Pirelli advise me that the correct specification for the GT3 is now:

235/35 R 19 Corsa Directional N1 - Front
305/30 R 19 Corsa Assimetrico 2 N1 - Rear

Anyone used this set up?

Used it on the GT3 it is very similar to the N0 spec that came in my GT2 , the N1 tend to not get greasy as fast as the NO's
Lasted about 8 track days compared to 2 -3 track days with the Trofeos 4-5 with the MSPCS
For the street there amazing in the wet , they get to working temperatures faster than the MSPCS

The down side is that they are slower around the track than both the Trofeos and MSPCS
and they tend to make some noise after a few heat cycles..

Good information. I was just concerned that they had recommended the correct spec as the rear tyres - Corsa Assimetrico 2 N1 doesn't have a rim protection mould on the sidewall but the fronts - Corsa Directional N1 Fronts do?
