What tire did you buy after your RE070 died
I'm just about to the point on my stocks tires I have 24xxx on them now and a nail in the right front. Just wanting to know what the Bay Area is running. Did you go to a bigger size?

Bf Good Radial TAs, then Talons (Generic, loud as hell on the freeway sounds like a monster truck) , Now Toyo Proxies4 which are my favorites of the bunch. But I like long lasting daily driver tires. If you want some nice track/street I hear Falkin Azenis are the ****.

I got the Falken Zeix 512's and ran them for winter. While a decent rain/snow tire they suffer from the sidewall feeling like "rubber bands" with a lot of flex. they grip, but they fell like they want to "wash out" at times. I am back on another set of 070's until the rainy season starts here in Nov and i will source some more cheap 512's.

how do you guys get so many miles on your RE's. I got like 8,000-10,000 out of mine and was showing wires.
I got Proxe 4's. I'd probably get the 615's if I was doing another summer tire.
