Havent those been out for a while now??? They arent the replacement tire for the RE01R, as Bridgestone has the Potenza RE-11s.

nice overall tire, i wouldnt say they are in the extreme dry performance category. Its a nice balanced tire that looks to perform well in rain/dry conditions street conditions. i wouldnt autocross/track them tho.

just my .02

They are good in the rain, okay in the dry, run narrow for their size, and have soft sidewalls. They need a minimum of 40psi even to be responsive. They are nowhere near the RE01R or RE11 in dry grip. I own a set and driven on them many times...good DD tire but I don't run them on my evo...For the price though they are pretty good. Although there are a few I would choose over them for that purpose having owned them.

These have been out for a few years already and were the Ultra High Performance replacement for the Pontenza RE750.

Been a great tire though. Currently #1 overall in its class on our rankings chart.
