However, after I left class last night it was pouring outside, I was completely confident at 80mph. No signs of hydroplaning or anything. With the stock RE050A tires I couldn't do 45mph when they were bald(obviously), the tail of the car would be all over the place just driving straight down the parkway. When the RE050A's were new I would be able to go 60-70mph in pouring rain and that was as far as I felt that I could safely go. Even launching in the rain last night from 0-80mph with the RE-11's was as good as launching the RE050A's in dry. I love these so far and they should only get better.



They don't stick out at all. These are pretty much flush with the wheels. The stock tires have a stretched look to them that I hate and the stock front tires are almost flush with the wheel. Makes the car uneven looking if you ask me.

Some people run 305's in the rear without issues but since they're too wide for the wheel you actually lose out on a full 305 contact patch because the sides of the tires are pulled in to fit the wheel. I would not run 305's unless you just want bragging rights, but your traction is no better and you pay a lot more for those bragging rights.

I was able to play a little bit yesterday after the tires and the front end feels really light in comparison. Can't wait to get a matching set for the front.
