I just got these tires mounted on my track wheels and I can't wait to try em out on Big Willow for Digital Racer's track day. I had the Falken Azenis Sport as track tires before and I wanted something stickier and not too much more expensive and I came across these tires on tirerack. I will update you guys on how they perform but that isn't till after Nov 11th.
If someone has these tires already please let me know how they perform.
They loook niiiice 8)

i believe Robi had them, but they work best shave (if its the same tire Robi had)

I have them too (unshaved). They are much better than any summer tires I have tried, but still not as good as some highend R-compounds. They are still the best tires at this price.

rating the RAs being 1 to hoosiers being a 5 , the dunlops shave should be near a 4.

These tires are a 60 AA rating while the RA-1s were formerly 40 upgraded to 50 AA... so RA-1 are still softer rubber. Some people complain about the weaker sidewalls on these tires.

You should get em shaved for sure.

well you should love those tires becuase azenis suck (in 245/45/17)so it should be night and day.
