Need some help picking next hpde tire for my 335i. First used mp4s. Then re71.

Brotherhef · 03-12-2022, 08:41 AM

Re-71 took 2s off my local track, but greasy towards the end. What is a tire that is quick like the re-71, but less greasy in the end? Looking at rt660, ao52, ad08, and maybe GY SC3.

Any advice on these four tires or other options is much appreciated.

I use the GY SC3. It wears really well, handles the heat, and is still decent in the rain.

Nitto NT01 - quickest lap will be the one before you see the cords

The RT660's are turning out to be the spiritual replacement for the RE71R. The A052 are a good option as well.
