Most notable observation, they wear like iron. Here's the FL tire after ~20 hours of track time completed last weekend:




They are known to wear like this, which is why they are popular in street tire limited endurance racing series'.

But, they have good grip for the wear they offer. Not like RE71R or Rival S grip, but those tires would likely be wrecked in 6-8 hours on my car.

They were predictable, made some noise, but quieter than Falken's. They didn't drop off in grip throughout the weekend. The fastest lap of the weekend was set in the last hour of the race. They will likely be heat cycled out of grip before they wear out.

In cool rain they were a bit scary, but the car is also raw and not setup well for the rain (throttle response, rear diff, etc.)
