I think you'll be happy with the RE71.

I just finished a time attack with them and they penalize you if you have RE71 in the >200 tread class.

Which is silly...not like they are some limited tire that not everyone can buy.

so got the re71's on the car, In a 225 size, they just a tad smaller then the nitto 235's...
They run really wide, no spacers at all.

They are as quiet as a regular street tire, as the nitto 01s sound like helicopters.

No spacers with -1.8 camber they tuck nicely...

I'm almost done with my first set of re71's. 1 tire definitely won't last another track day.

I might try the new RS4 next.

I am wondering if 245/40R17 is doable with the dinan springs.

im betting on no for a 245. I couldnt fit a 235 nitto 05 without rubbing in the rear.

try for a 35 sidewall and you'll be good, but good luck finding a tire.
