I have the RE960AS, and I think they're absolute trash. I'm sad they have a 40k mile warranty on them. It took me about 2k miles to get off the preliminary rubber and actually get to some rubber that could grip anything. I drive spirited, but well within my limits for the street, and I'm extremely disappointed in these tires. I wish I wasn't lazy and ordered my PZeros again, but I didn't and this was the only tire that ATC had in the 225/50/16 size that I needed.

I guess my expectations were a bit high since I think Bridgestone said these were supposed to outhandle the Michelin PS2s. For the $100 I spent on each tire, I would rather have gotten the PZero Neros.

 

im running dunlop dz101's and i like em, i got them for 106 a piece from 'for ur wheels' on el camino....my buddy works there....but im only running 225 45 17s....took it up too hammy and it felt great....good luck anthony

 

Can't beat the Bridgestone RE01R. I got them on right now and they offer awesome grip in the dry and very resistant to heat buildup. But they are more expensive.

 

how come you don't have Toyo listed. I think they are great tires.

 

I picked up my RT-615 for 85 each. The only thing is they only last about 15-20K depending on your driving though. So far I have not seen the horrible effects of them being greasy, but then again I have full coilovers, ALK, swaybars, and the only other tires I have had to compare them with on the car are the stockers.

 

If you're using it for daily driving, I don't think you'll see/feel too much of the greasiness of the RT-615. It's more of the fact the Azenis always overheat, when being pushed, which results in the greasiness.

Plus, if you're comparing them the RE-92s, then... well...



On a side note, how much better is the RT-615 at "resisting" the greasy feeling over the RE-215s? I heard Falken designed these specifically targeting that problem.

 

I miss the cheap price of the RT215s. If they wear out just get another set and don't drive them in the rain past 1/2 wear. I'm sure that rule applies more moderately on the RT615s; I've read, don't drive them past 3/4 wear in the rain.

I'm surprised nobody has suggested Bridgestone S-03s but these must still carry a high price tag if nobody said anything.

 

rs2s are hella sick......... i love ems

 

S03's must be expensive because i dont know what they are! I know they are a ridiculous tire though

 

don't buy RT-615 if you want to get more than say 20k miles.

if you don't auto-x, just get the Falken FK-452 if you like the brand. i'm a falken fan myself.

 

I have the FK-452 on my rally/rain set...and for 205s and how many sipes they have, they handle quite well. If you got 225-245 they would be very good.

Then again im comparing them with my old re92's
but also comparing them to my 225 50 16 Bridgestone050's so yeah.

 

t1r's!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ive had the RE-01R's and they are pretty good in the dry but in the wet, I almost poo'ed my pants

Im on a set of Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s now and I love 'em.:RockOn - not mine:

 

not sure if this was already said, but what about the new sumitomo htrz 3's?

They rank pretty good and are about $100 a tire. I'm going to get me a set when I have some moolah

 

re-92's. decent traction, excellent tread life, cheap.
