[ADAM]

What is it for buddy?

I believe that the Bridgestone RE71 was 140. An AWESOME street tire. Discontinued.

I think that their is a newer model that is almost identical to the origional RE71.... RE010 and RE040 or something. I think the new ones are a wear rating of 140.

Could be a large OTC Canadian contingent in 2003.

depends on the money situation....this OTC looks like a money pit

plus the drive out there is a killer hauling a trailer ....

Falken Azenis or whatever they're called. These things are the cheater tire of choice among U.S. Solo 2 guys you want to use the street tire bonus.

The OE tires on Type R's are damn good too, Bridgestone RE010. Only come in very specific sizes though, but I think the NSX sizes might be just right for your car.

If I go to the OTC in 2003, I'll be running in U4 on race rubber. No street tires for me! But I'm thinking of saving my money and doing some regional road racing instead.
