I have 10k on my tires and about 50% tread remaining.... Maybe 40%. One auto-x day and a ton of 90-100mph 2.5hr drives to Orlando.

I have always said, if you want grip with no gripe, then go with RE-11's. 265/285 FTW.

Juice14 · 07-04-2012, 11:05 AM

how do you think these compare to the new Michelin Pilot Super Sport at the track. Im sure the RE11s are stickier but how much of a difference between the two.

SPOHN · 07-04-2012, 11:08 AM

The PSS get a lot of talk and there great. But the price is a no go for me. I love my RE 11's but going with AD 08's next and see how they do.

One Track weekend at NOLA with Re-11's.

Over all very pleased with them. Aired them down to 31/32 Hot.

IMWEZL · 07-04-2012, 12:47 PM

I'm on my 2nd set of RE11s. I love them, especially now that it's super hot at the auto-x events. There is just so much grip available. Everyday driving is great too, low noise and to me they ride just as good or better than the stockers.

Question.. how do these compare to the RE760 version?

I can't seem to find the RE11 in their database. I could always go elsewhere if there are any recommendations.

its like frs vs 370
:-)

HA. Toyobaru!

Yeah, after close inspection, it's night and day. About $100 less per tire though. I wonder how the performance is, or if there is none and they're just for people who want to look like they have R11s at a glance.

cossie1600 · 07-20-2012, 07:34 PM

Once again, you get what you paid for. The RE11 grips better but doesn't last as long as the RE760. You have to decide if it is worth the money to you. (Yes it grips better than the Michelin Pilot Sport too)

kenchan · 07-20-2012, 07:47 PM

re760's like mid grade everybody tire, no? why would you put that on a sports car?

Face · 07-20-2012, 09:09 PM

I'm not familiar with Bridgestone tires. On my last car I always ran Goodyear Eagle F1 tires. I don't see anyone running these on here and the asymmetrical tires seem to be a favorite over directional.

37Z · 07-29-2012, 03:25 PM

Is this tire prone to get a lot louder as the tire wears?

geddy lee · 07-29-2012, 03:27 PM

Lately hearing better things about the Michelin PSS then the RE11s. Also PSS number 1 in Car and Driver summer tire test,
