It's possible that it would be faster, maybe, but I don't really see it. The BFGs like heat, but if I have any issues with my car, it's getting enough heat into the BFGs, especially in the rear. Granted, I have 305s only making that problem worse. I think the problem is that the 2.0T isn't all that heavy of a car, and doesn't have the power to light up the rears at will. It's also not a huge problem on 90+ degree days as the pavement is near operating temp for these tires.

I have some RE71Rs coming, so once I finish the Rivals, I'll see how they do.
