i went from the RE-11s to the RE-71Rs. Was getting 2 years on the rears and 3 on the fronts with the RE-11s. Looks like the rears will be 9-12 months. Fronts look like they're going to make it at least a year. Need to run 2-4 psi higher pressure to make them wear evenly. 36 gave me a great wear pattern on the RE-11s. Had the RE-71Rs at 36 and they developed a low pressure wear pattern. Bumped them up to 38 to try to get them wear more even.

RE-71Rs grip better but would run the RE-11s if they were still available. The RE-11s were the best grip/wear combo ever.
