Again, I can only get 4 dry days out of NT-01s, RE71Rs, and R7s. I really think these are the best bang for the buck HPDE tire. NT-01s might be up to one second faster. I have to say that I'm itching for a stickier tire, but IMHO these are much better bang for the buck than NT-01s. It will be interesting to see how much faster I am on stickier tires. I'm looking for DHs or BFG R1s next, and I'll post an update after the BMW event in early May. Cheers, -Daniel

Sales tax
So some of these online retailers are charging sales tax. Its up to the consumer to find the ones that are not. Just ran in to this issue with the NITTO NT01 set I just got. Summit matched the price of the other seller and didn't have to pay the sales tax. Nv to Az = no tax. Happy shopping.

depending on alignment settings, you can rotate them (not flip them) and have the insides and outsides wear at similar rates. this can also depend on the track you're at. i have been able to rotate/place these on the car based on how my car wears tires at a particular track, and have all four start to cord at the same time.

I just pulled the trigger on 4 Toyo Proxes RRs 285/30/18 for $1015 at Simpletire.com. I thought I'd share this good deal.
I've been meaning to try these for years. I'll report back.

Have you looked at the 595 RS-RR or Rival S/1.5? The 595s seem to be well-liked for their value, but aren't the fastest tire in their class. The Rival is a 200-cheater, as I understand it.

I just went through a set of Pirelli scrubs in one weekend. 1-2 seconds faster and so confidence inspiring carrying more speed through turns and late braking with minimal ABS activation. I just bought a set of Toyo RRs. I still want to try the BFG R1s, but I can't find them for under $1350 which is purple crack territory.

Yup, I've run 4 DE's on my RS4's now and they've been solid, and were used as DD tires on another car before I bought them. They will probably do maybe an Autocross coming up and then be done, they're just starting to chunk a little. I'm tempted to buy the NT01's, but for the price and my still novice level experience I'm gonna repeat buy the RS4's I think, too good a value until I feel I need to step up.

I believe the Rivals are about the same price as the RE-71R in that size. The new 1.5 variant is more; it supposedly has revised construction for better steering response, though I'm skeptical it's worth an extra $50 per tire.

umm FYI Nitto NT01 are 20% off at simpletire now! https://www.simpletire.com/catalog?s...&query=catalog
I might order a spare set to hold onto. 20% off is more rare, 10% off being more common. Use ebates for more cashback (3%) - if you don't have an account, referral: https://www.rakuten.com/r/KENYIP2?eeid=28187 |

Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3R's are available @ TireRack:
https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...omCompare1=yes 275/35/18, these are Goodyear's answer to Michelin's Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Grip level slots between NT-01 and Hoosier R7s (about a second faster than NT-01, and a second slower than Hoosiers). FYI. $276.xx each. Just a bit over $1,100 per set.
