Took the long way to grab something at the store and was followed by this sweet looking vert with the Nismo lip kit. I don't think he is on the forum. I also saw a Mcclaren 12c spider, Bentley GT coupe, and a new GT3 porche. Then I arrived home and finished the ride with a quick detail. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Finally got around to putting the sub control knob in the center console.

I have RE-11's on it now. That said I bought them used with the wheels (Volk TE 37 SL) They are a couple years old and may not be as sticky as they were new. They do far better than the stock RE-050 though.
Grassroots Motorsports did a test with RE-11 as the base against both the RE-71R and the Dunlop Direzza ZII Star Spec Both were better than the RE-11. They thought the RE-71R may have trouble on heavier cars during track days. I don't do track days but have been active in autox this year. Everyone I have talked to at the autox events has said the RE-71R is great and far better than the RE-11. Wear is going to be a problem if you daily drive it. I will not. I have two sets of rims and will put Michelin PSS on the driving rims. Hope that helps. Edit: An error ... The ZII Star Spec was actually third on the list for autox. They matched the BF Goodrich g-Force Rival S up near the top with the RE-71R.

Duh
I would be interested to hear any comparisons (now or in the future) you might have in regards to tread wear between the RE-11 and RE-71R
