Default RE-71R - the RE-11 replacement.
the RE-11 which I recently fell in love with is being replaced (still being produced though) by the new RE-71R. I guess its a remake of the old oem tire developed for the Porsche 959.

I've been trying to find info on them but most places say they wont have any in until march 1st at the earliest.

I found a 3 part youtube vid with the creator.

part 1

I was thinking about trying these but the biggest they are available in are 275/35/19 our OEM sizes. I wanted to continue running my 265/305 setup I recently switched to.

anyone have ideas or opinions on this new tire?

just figured id post to get some general discussion going about them.
