Potenza's held up quite well, I can take some photos of them later. The long sweepers at BW can be brutal on the fronts, my buddy had severe wear on his fronts (18" 275) after 90 laps. He'll be rotating those, lol. I only got in 40 laps due to missing several sessions on Sunday and fighting constant limp mode, boiled clutch fluid, and fuel cut.

S-04's are not the best for the track. I had a set, grip isn't too bad, actually great in the wet. But they heat up and melt off pretty easy. I just got RE-11's and will track them next week for the first time.

Awesome, please report how they held up. I will hold off on purchase after some good feedback

Sorry for the late response on this. I just got back from WSIR and took a look at my tread and I have to say I'm quite pleased! After three track days and 150 laps, they are not even near the wear bars:

Hoping to get 3 more track days in on this before I have to replace them.
