I almost went with the Pilot Super Sports for their higher treadwear but this forum made me change my mind and get RE-11's

edit: i think these tire sizes fit the sports wheels much better than the OEM setup

Damn that looks great, those are the exact sizes I was thinking about. Where did you buy the tires from? I'm sure the RE-11s must feel amazing and offer a huge amount of grip!

Thx Juruki.

I was just worried that the "meat" would stick out too far and over the rim. Also, theoretically, wouldn't handling be affected somewhat? (though maybe miniscule), since now you would have more "give" and "flex" in the tire, not supported by the rim??? granted it's only 10mm.....

That would be great, I will need to get new tires by the end of the year for sure and that price is cheaper than my other choice which is the Yokohama AD08s. Great find!
