BT016s according the Bridgestone distributor I buy my tires from says they are better than the BT002RS. But, some have run them on the track and the front end slid when they were pushed hard towards the end of the day (and it was hot outside). However, they aren't track tires.

I've got a set in the garage waiting to go on my ZX10. I don't run anything but BT's. The 014's are great, and they always did really well at the track for me. I've never had tires stick right off the bat like Bridgestones do. Michelins are another story, and that's exactly why I won't run them. I had a bad wreck at VIR racing on Michelins that weren't quite up to temp, and they still scare me.
