Due for new Tires, what should I do guys?

I like TSW wheels you got. I'm gonna have to look into them. I'll try to see how much it'll add up for a set of 18x10 & 18x10.5? I'll have to read into the details in regards to weight of the wheels.

I'm still contemplating on the set of 19 Sport Rays with RE50A w/ 3500 mi. for ~$1525 someone's selling in classified, it just seems like a cheaper option compared to outting $1350 for a set of new RE-11 on pure tires. But if I did go with that option, I'd track with my current set of RE-11 and let the RE50A hold me up for 3 more track days and then possibly get myself a set of V12 for as daily driver which could last me ~3yr. But after the set of RE50A I'm back dealing with the same issue of forking out $1200+ per year for the set of RE-11s until I can get a trailer to go R compound. And even if I go R Compound, I'm gonna have to sell 1 set of my 19" to replace it with 18" due to tire selections.

Thanks for helping out again. I'm glad you're making it happen and enjoying your life. I admire you trailer you built, I would need to start looking into that. I love little side projects.

I currently have KW V3 coilovers and I set my ride height to almost the highest it allows - it still bottoms out on harsh bumpy roads. I'd be interested to see how it'll perform on the corkscew at Laguna in 2 weeks.
