Default About to jump on a set of RE-O10's; Anyone at Tire Rack to ask for?

Since my 615's are almost shot after twelve months, I'm finally trying a set of Re-010's now that they are on a sweet deal. I don't race auto-x on street tires any longer but I do want something that brakes and turns predictably. This is sort of a 28th birthday present to myself so I'm stoked to finally have a semi-grippy tire that will actually last for than 10,000 miles.

Is there anyone in particular to ask for at Tire Rack? I just want to support a fellow H-Ter or ITR owner in the process.

-Matt

Sounds like a great Idea. I'm still on the fence about ordering a set. I've never driven the R on those tires and would love to get a chance to try them.

i've only come across 1 type of road tyre better than the RE010

i was running them for a year before i switched to these new ones. REALLY stunning tyres for the ITR

I'd love to try a set of the oem tires on a lightweight 15x7" wheel. I still think that would be a great setup.

But for the oem 15x6" wheel, probably the best tire you can get in terms of feel.
