The Star Specs aren't that great on heavy cars.

POTENZA史上最速のストリートラジアル 「POTENZA RE-71R」新発売 | ニュースリリース | *式会社ブリヂストン

but from what i can tell these are a step above the RE-11 from the test graphs and numbers. as well as in a video i saw they were running them on a GT-R R34 and it was tearing the track up.

the creator said the best part about the tires are that they give the grip of a track tire but do not need to be heated to a high temp to get that grip.
