I'll do some looking into it, but I get the feeling the PS4s won't stack up against the RE-11s, when they get warmed up on the track.

I will give you some feedback their track performance as my buddy just put a set on his 1le camaro and we are headed to the track this weekend.

I track with the PSS's. They will hold up for about 20 ~ 25 minutes before getting greasy. I now have 285/35-19 PS4S on the front. They feel like they have a lot more grip then the PSS's on the street.

From what I have read and heard PS4Ss are supposed to be better than re11s.

On the front. I went from PSS to the PS4S. I could tell right away of how much more grip there was.

PSSs were a good compromise between were and grip. They tended to last longer than re11s but did not perform as well. The new ps4s was built to improve on grip while keeping its wear and wet weather characteristics.

I would not recommend r71r's for street or track for the most part. My track buddy that I keep talking about has been through 2 sets of r71r's and got about 6 sessions out of the before the steel belts were showing. When I talk to the experience time trial or time attack guys they say the love them but they are only good for one session and really about 3 laps before they start to loose grip. NTO1s are still king for 100 tread wear track tire.
