Running unshaved RA1s makes you think your car is broken. It's really bad for the first weekend.

I've never shaved NT01s and never noticed a real difference from the first use on.

(Then again, there's a chance that NEITHER the current RA-1s or NT01s are the same as they were before Toyo attempted to switch to the R888. It's possible that they are using R888 cores or components in both tires. The old 'faster and faster until you get to the cords' character doesn't seem to be there anymore.)
