Would they be the ZR rated Diablos

I agree with Keefy about the S2R, I've got yer average issue size 9's and the zorsts still push my heel out to an uncomfortable position where your ankle feels like it's going to fall off after 20 mins.

I don't agree with the 888's handling being 'loose' though - that's just my bowels when I chuck it in too fast
