Tire Rack TW200 Testing
« on: July 30, 2015, 08:49:25 PM »
Tire Rack just released one of their awesome tire comparisons featuring the RE-71R, Rival S, RS3 V2, and the largely unknown Kumho V720.



Check out the full test here:  http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tests/chartDisplay.jsp?ttid=202

It's pretty obvious which tire is the one to have... I certainly feel willing to try the V720 though.

I've always heard that fresh Kumho's bite really nicely, but they get greasy after you get some runs on them. I am not sure if that is still true.

Anyone run the G-Force?  Looks like they have a size that I can fit.

I have driven a couple of cars with the G-forces and have also followed results.  They seem to do good.  However the one thing I noticed is that they seem to go off as they age .... use 'em up quickly and you'll be ok.  :)
