something like a V720/V730 is more cost-effective and a lot easier to drive.

My bud liked the cheap V730’s a lot more than NT01, and they appear to be a long lasting tire so far. I don’t have personal experience with them yet.

I'm currently running Federal 595 RSRR's, which are at the end of their life limit (sat for a couple years in storage). Excellent wear resistance, can't comment on their relative grip since it's the only "track" tire I've ever run on this car. I'm assuming an NT01 or V730 or RS4 is going to be a big step up in terms of speed.

V730 or NexenSport-R are what I'd pick if I were just getting started on this wallet crushing tire addiction.

Y’all read this from his post?
“Needs in order of importance: Long life/hard wearing Cost effective Great dry grip Decent wet grip” Nowhere does it say fastest possible, he’s literally asking for an endurance tire.

RS4 hits all of those requirements. I like the NT01 but decent wet grip would be a bit of a stretch.

Depends on the how you define 'great dry grip' I suppose. NT01 better then the Force or RS4 for that, but both the Conti and the RS4 would wear a bit better and be better in the wet.
Between those 3 I think he'll find a good option though. |

Thank you for posting this information. I don’t have Instachat or Facesnap so wasn’t aware of the PS5S launch info. IMO the product will be a game changer.

My two cents. Ran the NT01 for 8 days. Didn’t like it at all. Sidewalls were mushy and not confidence inspiring under braking. Technology is a decade old at this point? I have 5 days on RE71RS running 1:58 pace at Thunderhill with full aero and 3400lbs (full tank). They still have life left and feel like a huge step up.

Very true. Makes buying the RR's new seem silly when you can get the NT01 (which is the same rubber compound), just comes with more tread to start.
The main advantage to the RR is the sizes - you can get them in 295/30 and 315/30. Where the NT01 you're stuck with 275/35, or running 305/35 on the rear (which is very tall). |
