Honestly I'm interested to see what kind of feedback you get from people on this, because I think the PSS is nice and light and grippy as a road tire and will probably last more miles but the RE-11 is a bad-*** grip machine, although an older design.

Or yeah... Test it... Go on...
My experience is that RE-11s run narrow. I ran them for half an autox season 3 years ago. They are by far the best wearing tires in comparison to the Rivals, R-S3s, and RE-71Rs I've destroyed. However, the others have them beat in terms of grip.
