Re: Summer Tire Advice
I looove my RE-01R - best Summer tires I've ever ran; and, the RE-11 are supposed to even (marginally) better. Overall grip in the wet and dry are incredible for a non-R-comp, and the breakaway is predictable and linear. I've ran them down to -10°C on dry roads and they are still safe. I haven't noticed any significant road-noise characteristics, but I'm probably not the best person to comment on that as my car is full of poly bushings, spherical bearings, and a loud exhaust

Re: Summer Tire Advice
I decided on the Hankook V12 evos. They got great reviews and are a bargain compared to the Michelins. I've heard some people complain about mushy sidewalls, but I don't track the car so this probably won't be an issue for me.

Re: Summer Tire Advice
Let us know what you think once you've put some miles on them. BTW, some have suggested that the top rated Michelin PS2's have soft sidewalls ...
