    New tires: potenza re71-r 225/50r16

    After having my Falkens for about a year and 20k km I'm switching to a wider stickier UHP street legal track tire.
    My zeix ze950 all seasons were excellent in the warm summer, decent for winter, and typically slippery in the wet. But still better then others I've had.
    They were 205/50R16 and retailed for $125each.
    Started with 10/32nds and now have 5/32nds -6/32nds.
    3 tires are perfect. 1 has a slight defect. If someone wants them I can get a new one and make a full set.
    I'm looking for $65a tire. $195 takes all 4 (3 good + 1 free with bubble) 87V 600-a-a

    I have no problem saving these, might use them as winter tires next year.


    My new tires:

    Bridgestone Potenza RE71-R 225/50R16 92V 200-a-a

    Nice man! Nothing like a good set of semi slicks, I love my Advans, one of the best things I've bought for my car.
