I shudder when I think those tires will be shot some day in the not too distant future....they're not the cheapest things in the world.

You're only talking about ~$300 more than a budget summer tire. Well worth the fun you'll have wearing that rubber down to nothingness . RE-11s are my next tire... disappointed I bought Hankook Ventus V12s. They're brand new and I'm ready to get rid of them. Looks like I'll be doing some aggressive track days this summer.

I thought I was doing myself a favor and getting tires that would last longer (wife was upset about new tire purchases). Now they're sitting on my summer rims with under 100mi on them, and I'm thinking I'd rather have spent the extra $300 to have RE-11s.

Perhaps I'll sell them in a couple months and just get the RE-11s. They're just waiting out the winter in the garage anyway. Other choice is to flog them on the track and give everyone an in-depth review compared to the RE050As...I'm out there for fun, not lap times anyways.
