EAGLE F1 SUPERCAR 3 available on tirerack

It looks like tire rack has some of the new 1LE / ZL1 tires in stock. I think these are the same tires the ZL1 had in the Nuremberg Ring video. Price looks pretty good but would requires new rims for my SS.

Is this the best option out there for dd / track duty? vs RE-71R vs R-S3's on stock size rims.

What are your thoughts?


$280 for fronts
$312 for rears

Those tires are too new... I don't think many have experience with them enough to compare them to RE71 or RS3. Pricing looks good though. (not like Pilot Cup 2s. 550/tires..... )

Hmm. I wonder how they compare to Nitto NT555. I'm eyeing some new wheels and planned on the nittos. Probably won't see track use anytime soon. Just DD and tearing around some mountains (slowly lol).

These tires should be comparable to the A3s on the SS, a little bit softer compund and a little bit more sticky.

Hard to question the Performance of these tires after watch the ZL1 on the "Ring.....but someone will always have an opinion on what has worked best for them.

Thats what I was thinking, After seeing that ZL1 video, I think this is going to be a great tire for the money. The price looks good, the handling is going to be great, I'm just wondering if it's worth it to buy new rims to use these tires. And how long they will last.

Looks like a very good tire choice.
