If you think the Super Sports are going to last appreciably longer than RE-11s or even the older PS2, you're going to be disappointed. That treadwear rating of 300 means zilch.
That being said, I'm sure they will be phenomenal tires. Certainly on my list in the future if the RE-11s don't keep me as thrilled as they currently do.

You won't be happy to see them wear out at about 6000-7000 miles in the front, of course you will be going so much faster that you don't mind it as much. It's not like the R888 where you spent tons of money and is still slow.
