Potenza RE 11 1st drive today

[James Chimney]

85.5 944 na, I was running G-Force 205 front to 225, 225 rear to 245, temp 40 & sunny, got the Bridgestone Potenza RE11 tires installed today and drove about 20 miles, some highway and some highway turns 80 mph, in a word SWEET i love these tires, the front feels a bit heavier now (wider tires) but they feel great, I did not want to push it in the cool weather, can't wait for AX and summer drives, will post more as I drive more (tire rack has them on special I saved $110 on these tires)

What were the sizes and prices you got. Seriously, I think this is the best mod you can do for the car. I work for Bridgestone, so I can get the 4th tire free when buying a set, and honestly couldn't find a better tire for autoX, track days, and 5000 miles of Summer driving.

I got vipers on mine. Stock fronts and bigger rears ill post what sizes . When I get home.
I put them on and am now again. Able to take my favorite turn. 35mph posted at 70mph - Half way through i hit 110.
Love the traction control on the tires. Don't slip at all... and my car feels like a champ going around it

Ok today it was 50 degrees (I know summer is around here some where) and took my 85.5 944 na out to Bear Mountain (about 50 miles north of NYC) and pushed a little (still not sure of how well these tires will or will not hold, so far so good, these seem very well planted in all the turns I took, even one I got into a little to hot but the RE 11's held with no problems, AX next weekend in Hartford, CT, will repost again then, so far I love them
