Default NE1 want to dicuss tires?

Getting feedback on Yoko AdVAN Neova, ADVAN Sport, Bridgestone RE-01R is where I'm going with this.
Specifically, how well they perform on the track. Read reviews and been to Tirerack et al.
I'm trying to avoid having 1 set of tires /street and 1 set of tires/track.

Default Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3

I have run these on my past two cars and absolutely love them. Hydroplane reduced considerably. Excellent grip in the corners. Quiet. Good for about 10K of hard driving (aggressive street + autocross). Pus they have the coolest looking tread pattern!

I have tried many different tires over the years and these are the best I have had in every way. They aren't cheap (about $1,000 for four)., but I've paid more for tires that were nowhere near as good.

Speaking of new tires - if anyone is looking for a set of Pirelli P-Zero's with 1600 miles on them, let me know.

Default Don't put any of those tires on your Audi because according to a few here it would be...

Considered a mod because it did not come from the Audi manufacturing plant as OEM.

Default The GS-D3's are rated at the top. I'm resisting them for some reason I cannot answer.

Your testimonial is encouraging. Prices for the top-rated xtreme tires typical run $1K for a set. Thanx.
