| lesley,
I had the Hoops to start and then 2 sets of Diablo's, and now I have the Metzlers. I think the Diablo's and Metzlers are much nicer than the Hoops and seem to grip the road better. I only have about 3,000 miles on the Metzlers and think that they are just a bit nicer than the Diablo's. But I will never go back to the Hoops if I can get the Diablo's or Metzlers. Just my opinion though. |

| The Diablo and Metzeler are the same, even the design is the same. I read that you are English (UK) has the Metzeler "Wintec" if you use the Silver Wing in the winter. |
