Totally agreed!! I only got 2-3 days out of RE-01 in my R32, but that understeered so much, it just scrubbed the tires away.

The 370, on the other hand, handles properly... so they "should" last quite a bit longer without being understeered to death.

Only time will tell if this is a good tire decision. We'll see how many HPDE days i get out of them.
