I find it interesting that these worked well for you in the recent rains in Houston. My experience with RE-11s was once they were under about 5/32" tread wear, they hydroplaned like crazy in any amount of standing water; I was afraid to drive over 40 mph in them once water started collecting on the roads.

What's your F / R camber degrees?
My fronts do NOT wear like that @ the track.

-2.0 degress. The wear is because of the amount of toe-in I had set at the front, which was close to stock.

my fronts last year on a 265/305 RE-11 setup still have at least 70/75% left after 13k miles. rears still had a little bit about wear bar maybe 4.5/32nds these tires are great. the current set is still going strong as well. sadly car goes into hibernation soon sooooo time to burn the rears off.

I had a brand new set of PSS's and the in one of the turns the front left tires shoulder rolled on me and the butthole puckered a bit. RE-11s haven't done any of that yet and I feel I pushed harder this past year than any on parts of the dragon and they held
