Just bought a set of these Potenza RE-01R

[mdr40z]

They are on close-out at Tire Rack, $78 down from $182.

I don't care if they are older stock, that's a great price on a great tire

not bad at all, $58 for stock fitment is a bargain even though their 5 years old...too bad I just got the Falcon Azenis r615's.

i wouldnt buy old tires

i wouldnt buy old tires

their from 05..tires have a 10 year life span.
If I was in the market for tires I would consider these...although they wouldnt last much more then 10k being the treadwear is rated at 140.

I think you got ripped off. It sounds like some kind of cheap knock off of Falken RT-615. You know, like when you buy a Prada, but it says PradO. :rofl:

Re-01r's are great tires! Super sticky! Tires can last depending on how you use them and whether it's outside or inside the garage....

and tires expire from 6 years of DOT from most distributors. (based on common sense reasons)

All and all... EXCELLENT buy!

Thats what I figure and heck I drive this thing maybe 10 miles per week anymore

See, i already bought the Falkens for my car. But, next time i'm getting RE01Rs since you need only two of those vs 4 Falkens.

You misread.....$58 for the Potenza RE-01R tires at tirerack, not Falcons..haha

I was implying I would jump on this deal if I havent recently bought the Falcons.

to corner at the same Gs you could almost, seriously the re01r was the best tire for street tire autocross classes last year. that said the new kumho or nt05 could dethrone it this year.
