I've used the nt01 and liked it a lot, it definitely likes heat to grip. Or another option the kumho xs, I've always liked that tire and can't wait for the new version to come out
And I've always liked the Michelin ps2 A Lot but Michelin tires are not cheap

Well after much consideration, i have decided against the RE-71R based on some feedback i have encountered. Mainly, they don't stand up to extreme heat well.
The NT-01 is having tread splitting issues, so skip that one.

I have finally decided on Bridgestone R888
F: 245/40/18
