Pilot Super Sports

Thanks for the input guys. I might just go with the RE-11s in the stock nismo sizes but if I dont, I'm gona go with the 255/275 super sport setup.

By the way - anyone have the super sports long enough to comment on tread life? I got about 20k out of my advan sport rears and I dont think I will get any more from the RE-11s. If the super sports will last longer that will probably be my main decision factor.

I have about 2,000 miles on mine and they basically have all of their tread.

Yeah, I definitely will. I do have to admit, it's going to be tough to go easy on the tires during the break in period.

I would like to see a picture to see how they look on your wheels. I am looking for tires now. The stretched look is not for me.

Not bad. They seem quieter than RE050A. I am old though and have that age realted thing about not being able to hear high pitch sound. I think it was too much loud Zeppelin, Floyd, Tull, Yes and Sabbath in my teens/twenties/thirties/forties/now.

No such thing as too much of that music.
