315/30-18
they haven't been 'officially' released at TR yet...I've bugged my Rep. for quite a while about bringing them in, just got word today--and 'ordered' a set.

I've found that the BFG Rival S is a much stickier tire and is also in the 315 sizing. The RE71 may be the quickest but only in Japan is a 295 offered.

one thing of concern with the Rival S is the reduced load-rating...GT3 will likely be less worrisome, but heavier/torque-ier GT2/TT need to think about it
I'm all for RE71R's in 315 sizing...
