They've been discontinued*** since 2015. Everything is old stock.

About a week a ago there was only 1 set of RE11 fronts left in the US according to my local Wheel Works. The front were toast and needed a set. They tried to sell me some Firestones but had them ship in a set of 71Rs. Rears are still RE11s and about half way done. I'm thinking the front and rears will be done around the same time now. Drove them a little on Saturday and they felt good for new rubber. Raining around here so driving the beater until it lets off.

FYI, would recommend staying away from the old stock. My rears feel harder than the previous set I had. It was probably already an old set when I got them a year ago. Still sticky in on warmer days but in the rain and cold the break loose really easy.

My set is two years old with lots of tread but they heat cycled out quickly and are only good for cruising and when temps are really warm.
