I am on RE-11 285/35 sq. It took away all the annoying understeer from the car and made the car very balanced. As for tire pressure, RE-11s are sensitive. I was told to run 37F and 38R (Always 1 psi more in rear) and in certain pavement I have taken out 12 cars and finished 2nd in CStreet. However, that PSI doesn't work in all surface. I recently found out that taking out 2-3 rear psi in another venue (surface), gives me better time in that specific venue. I'm still open to hear what PSI people are running in their RE-11. Ran into a 370Z owner (stock) with RE-11 (245/35 F and 285/35 R). He was running 40 psi F and 38 R . He was able to beat my time by 1s but he is autox-ing for a while now (more experienced than me) . So you kinda get the picture.
