Just bought a set of RE-11's yesterday 245/40 f 285/35 r for less than $1200. For those interested in RE-11, just gotta call TireRack, or go to your local Firestone dealer and they even price-match Costco's prices. I informed the Bridgestone rep at TireRack that the 285 wasn't online, yet he said it was available. That has since been fixed on their website. As for the RE-11 being discontinued, that is incorrect, as previously thought. I found out that the tire has been updated with a different compound and better sidewall. Treadwear, or UTQG, is now 200, up from 180. It is only by this difference you can differentiate the older version1 RE-11 from the newer version2. So far the version2 have been released in the wider rear sizes, which is fine since the rears wear faster. I don't mind having a stronger compound on the rear and softer version1 up front. Mind you, I am not talking about RE-11a's. Check it out on TireRack. RE-11's are here to stay. All's well in tireland now.
