I think they will evaporate with street use - maybe get ahold of continental?

I've heard those street comps are shitty as hell. A buddy of mine has them on his new edge sixxer and he sometimes has trouble keeping them planted.

Under normal driving they are ok, but yes I have trouble getting them to hook. Even though I have a Whipple 2.3 Hahahahah..

might wanna check out cooper's rs3-s. They were tested and recommended on the roush mustangs. Can get them for under 200 on discount tire.

Going to have to replace one of my RE-11s but they're all on back order. Any suggestions?
Thinking about these:

Since I'll be making a few trips to lime rock this summer.
Opinions?

I would think that wet race tires would wear out pretty quick on a dry track, or during normal DDing.

I am running these right now. They are great tires for the money, BFG Sport Comp 2s. But if you are only replacing two tires, they might not be a good match for the RE-11s.

FWIW, I ran the Continental Extreme Contact DWs previously, and LOVED them.
