Places that shave tires will usually not touch a tire that's been driven on. The blade that shaves the rubber would get ruined by any rocks, etc. embedded in the rubber.

RE730's are fine tires, but they're not R-Compound (track tires).

It's an interesting question, actually. The Yokos will last about 20% longer (going by the treadware rating). But they cost about 18% more. So the dollars-per-mile might be about the same, and the Kumhos are going to grip better while you're using them. I'd probably go with the Kumhos.
