Hi all,

Just wanted to share......

I'm sure some of you know that the RE-71R tires have been discontinued, and Bridgestone is coming out with the new RE-71RS model.

https://practicalmotoring.com.au/car-news/bridgestones-improved-semi-slick-re-71rs-remains-street-legal/?fbclid=IwAR3J-YcDkkGhgauJDM9H0ghsWtspLUkMitR6ROXW5UnIJXtOnb5suhwKBFI#:~:text=Bridgestone%20has%20announced%20its%20new,maximum%20grip%2C%20and%20ride%20characteristics

However, according to our suppliers at Spec R, there is no ETA on the new RE-71RS in the Canada or the US (TireRack) right now.

The old RE-71R is on closeout and discontinued. There will be no new inventory.

If you want a new set of tires for Autocross this year its probably wise to act early.

You are welcome to email us at info@specr.ca or contact your tire shop and get a set NOW.

For example 205/50R15 sold out already

Look forward to you seeing you guys at the track!
