I still have 4 to 5/32nd all around except a lot more wear on the outside on the RE11 in the front. I am debating if I should flip them just to get a few more miles out of it. I definitely recommend the RE11 if you race the car and can afford one set of those a year.

I compared them to the R888, they dont feel as good, but times are within a few tenths
I got about 20 events and the equivalent of well over 200 runs on the fronts before they corded. Mine actually corded on the inside and I didn't know they were corded until I pulled the wheels off for something else (whoops!). My rears are progressing the same way and I think I'm going to back down my rear alignment a bit to preserve tire life. I'm not sure if it is a good idea to flip the RE-11's as they have a stiff outer sidewall and a soft inner sidewall. But if it is that or throw them away then it might be worth a shot.
