Camarorulz -

The RE950s and RE910s are designed to last longer than my Yoko ES100s I'm sure, and as such they're a harder compound. They're still awesome in the rain, but I doub't you'll be able to launch on them really well.

I'm still mastering the Yokos, but after upgrading my LCAs they grip to no end. My main problem when I ran my 15.220 on them was not having LCAs, the tires are very sticky under all situations and I love them [img]smile.gif[/img] . I have nothing bad to say about them at all, best tires I've ever owned. [img]graemlins/love.gif[/img]

The Bridgestone which would kick as much *** as my tires is the RE750 though, its a true performance tire with no tire life warranty. It just depends on "Do I want a stinkin warranty or not?" [img]smile.gif[/img]

Weigh out how you drive and what you want from a tire, and invest. The RE950s are still awesome tires though, great everywhere but snow, but you need to decide if its worth paying $50 per tire for the warranty.

Also, Robert, those are all good tires you listed too [img]smile.gif[/img] Most people tend to buy those and enjoy them, however theyre pricey for what you get.

Dominic, the goodyear's he mentioned are new, the looks a lot like the high end yoko's. Tirerack seems 2 give them 9's in everything except noise and ride comfort, which are in the 8's. I'd be curious 2 see how well they'd work on our cars and how long they'd last.
