Bridgestone RE11: After 12K Miles, theUndisputed KING of street tires. Review inside

ltullos · 01-09-2018, 02:24 PM

I was able to buy a set this week from Discount Tire and I also confirmed Tire Rack has them in stock. I bought 285/35R19 (F) & 305/30R19 (R). The 305s initially looked like they were going to be hard to find but Discount called today to say the were delivered from warehouse

Has anyone that has been tracking RE11s switched to RE71s and able to offer wear comparison?

Lots of info out there on re71s....they are are sticky and fast but they wear pretty fast on heavy cars like ours. My track buddy runs them on his 1le camaro and doesn't get more than 3 or 4 track weekends with them.

That is why I love the RE11's. I can get 22-24k out of the rear and over 40k out of a set of fronts. It will be interesting to see the new lines coming out in the near future.

Your tire sizes do not match in height. Just a forewarning incase you experience some handling issues.
