side wall too soft

 

i think they are bad *** tires, i love em , just got a set mounted on the si today too .
they are better the hotter it gets outside, and great int her rain , they suck in snow though. they grip good , i hahahahaha i killed my clutch in my other teg with my 17's with these on trying to spin em . . . so they do grip good i dragged on them a few times.

 

I got these about 2 months ago, 195-55-15 on the stock rims. Like DC2-8888 said, the side walls are way too soft. If you really like the steering and turn in characteristics of the stock RE010's, stay away from these. I have to run them at 40F/38R cold, just for them to be acceptable. However, they do have some grip and a more comfortable ride. But around turns, they just don't have the control or stability of the RE's. I wish I had spent the extra $50 each for the stockers.

 

i have 205/50/15
like i would say yes the sidewalls are soft
they tires look good from behind though the tread pattern i love it
but the downside is that turn in seems slow
for track performance for Me they are good enough, like unlimited ran a 14.4 wtih them in his R with just t1-S 205/50/15 and like aem
so yeah they are not bad,
compared to stock tires, re010 seems to have faster turn in when i had them and faster switch over when i would counter the wheel
when i turn though 205/50/15 seems more stable, not sure if its the tire or what
but yeah i would get SP9000 dunlops
i RATE them good, but not the BEST road tires i think there is tirse better in rain still and just as good for the same price

 

 

I have a set of 195-55-15's on stock ITR rims.

As with everyone else, I'm gonna have to say that the sidewall is way too soft. My friends car, exact same suspension, with S0-3's feels soo much more precise. The steering is awesome. Mine...is really wishy washy. They have good grip...but, I'd recommend S0-3's over these.

 

I gotta jump in here and vent a little. I have a set of 195/50/15 T1-S on my ITR. Sidewall stiffness is really crap, it scares me to hit high speeds on the highway with the fear that the tires will come loose on a lane change because of the sidewalls. On straight line, they are of acceptable grip but, I can chirp the tires on 2nd and 3rd gear almost without trying; something I could not do with the Potenzas. I have to admit that the tires look awesome but I wish I would have bought some other tire.

 

My friend has em on his LS teg and he says there not the greatest....

 

THe side wall thing doesn't matter im using them for straight line, and side walls on low psi get a nice launch when soft...
