Bridgestone Potenza RE-11

Hello Gang,

I am interested in the new Bridgestone Potenza RE-11s.

Has anyone had any experience with these tires ?

Been running RE05As with good effect......

Thanks in advance for the replies and opinions....

Someone over on rennlist just put a set on. They did a DE and reported a positive review of the tires.

I have installed 3 sets of these for customers now and they all had positive things to say about them.

I've heard good things about them as well however I'd suggest comparing them against some similarly classed tires to see which ones fair the best for your application and usage.
I know Nitto came out with a new tire (Nitto NT05) that have had good reviews, check out Kumho Ecsta MXs too (which I am currently running with great results so far...as good, if not better, than factory Michelin PS2s at 1/2 the price)

I would want to see how they compare to the latest version of the Michelin Pilot Sport.

Some Reviews of RE-11 on Tirerack

Spoke with Damon the other day - he was quite positive on them, especially the grip factor.

There are some reviews on TireRack - just search under RE-11.

I would post the link but it is crazy long......

GT3 Boys seem to like them as well......
