In terms of availability or tread life?

I FUCKING LOVE THAT TIRE. It's the only one that's been able to keep my FC's rear straight when matted

I kinda feel like it's all or nothing. I don't really have a desire to attend DGRR AGAIN with no rotary, especially the Cosmo. I NEED to bring the car home Sunday so I can drive it and shake it down and clean it up before Thursday.
Don't be a pussy, drive untested. It's more fun that way

Really? I tried the Z1 SS and hated those as well. They were ok on the auto-x, until I mashed the gas, or the brakes. After one particular auto-x that was a good 2 hour drive away I put the fronts on the rear and just smoked them round in the parking lot

until 4/18 unless your tire dealer has some hidden away. Tirerack has it posted
as the available date now. I also hear the RE71s are great for autocross but
don't last as a track tire.
Damnit!!!

RS3 by default? Fuuuuuuu.... lemme email away
