Hey Ryota, good news!! They make the Bridgestone RE-11 in my size(205/50 15), but they're $120 a piece. Azenis are like $75 a piece. Is it really that worth it considering the fact of how many track events I do?

oh, my next event will most likley be buttonwillow on August 1st. =)

button willow? awesome. well the azenis are a good tire for the price. its just after certain number of laps, they heat up and get all greasy. which in your car, would probably start understeering.

the REs on the other hand, last more laps without greasing up like the azenis, basically giving you more constant lap times. the problem however if you are going to be dailying on them is tire wear. im sure they wear much faster than azenis. and considering you only do track it 2-3x a year? not sure if its worth it. but for $120 thats not that bad. $120 is how much azenis in 17s cost.

EDIT: also, my observation on it was the RE01s the older version. i personally havent driven on the new tires that replaced the RE01s but im guessing they are up to par or even better than the previous versions
