Current tire thinking
So am going to bring RS to BW with me
Are Nittos still the way to go on 18rims? Anything new / better / dare say cheaper?

newer: well, not really, RE71 don't have sizes yet
better: not at this price point
cheaper: I haven't seen anything. i just picked up 2 more sets for just over 1k on sale (like 1020 /set).
1 set will MORE than last. BW isn't very hard on tires especially since you're a boxster momentum driver now :-)

Yeah unless you need to win DE and hit the HOHO crack pipe... there is no better tire for these cars for track days.

not entirely off topic, but Continental are launching the ContactExtreme Sport in a couple of weeks, and Michelin just announced the replacement for the
MPSS with the Pilot Sport 4 S

Man, Continental's product naming seems terrible to me. They use the word contact in everything it seems.

meh... when i see a couple guys who race/DE turning times on NT01 faster than guys on slicks and/hoho... i know there is something left in the driver. When i stop getting PBs i'll move to a stickier tire.
