You are right, if the compound used remains the same all the way to the carcass. Tire design is always a compromise, usage of silica will improve rolling resistance, but improvement in rolling resistance is also equivalent to lesser grip. Like wise, a tire that has good cornering grip will have bigger outer blocks which is a little noisier, so again it is a compromise. I am also on the CSC5P, this tire is a tarmac ripper. Even when it's cold I could hear the rear tires picking up sand every morning I leave my house <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
