yeah on top of that i had -2.5 degree camber in the rear, 3 autox's and countless digs from a stop under my belt. these were the "updated" re-11's with 200 treadwear (not sure if anything else was updated other than the treadwear). i believe they used to be 180.

the PSS's are lighter when comparing same size tires, at least in 19's
