That is the exact tire I'm running on my '01 S in 225/40-17 and 255/40-17 sizes. I really like them. I have even run them on the track a couple of times and while they are obviously a street tire, they performed remarkably well.

Go for it.

I would agree. I am impressed by the handling of the RE050's. My only issue is my set has been hard to get and keep balalnced. Might just be this set.

Graeme,

Looks like you laid down a pretty fair time at the Porsche Parade Auto-X at Qualcom. Top Boxter and in top 5 overall for the day. Nice run my friend. :cheers:

Were you running Potenza RE050A's that day?

I drove to the event on RE050's ;)

Hoosier A6's for competition runs though. I actually had TTD for about a minute... until a GT2 in the Modified class stole my thunder. Then when the Improved cars came out, I dropped down a few more spots.
