I have a set of 305/30s on order through TR when they come in there. With bridgestone pulling out of this segment i might take a year and test this set of tires. assuming i keep the car

I ran an SSC car at the end of the season with these tires on it and they were impressive. struggled in the wet but dry they felt excellent! Granted different car but felt a lot more poised then my old STX car that i ran RE71Rs on.

The rumors on bridgestone just do i don't get a lot of DMs. From what i heard after 2021 there will be no more RE71R as there is a replacement in japan already and its been proven no faster. The reason it exists is the Japanese market complained about the life expectancy of the RE71R.

I got 16 races out of my RE-71's and roughly 150 laps. They are shot. They started to fall off about halfway through the season. I'd get 1 or 2 good laps from event #8-#16.

How did TR let you place the order?


On the website, the size isn't listed. I called and they said not even an option in their system.

Were there not some early reports of the 660's chunking during autocross use? I'll be ordering some new autocross tires and can't decide between a 295/305 GYSC3 or a 275/305 660 (Strano measured the RT 660 275/30/19 to be 11.5" wide :O )

I can't say all the reports are the same, but the problems we had at local events were on camber limited cars and when people did back to back fun runs without spraying them down. One of the local CAM-T drivers has done very well on them in his 1st gen camaro.
