If you are accustom to the factory RE040's then the RE050A's and RE050A PP's are going to be simply amazing. Even the all-season Bridgestone RE960AS's had more grip in the corners than the RE040's did. If only they made the RE-01R in our sizes.

I think they're a step above the regular RE050As. Here's a post I made on another thread.

BTW, I've had PS2s on a previous car, so it's hard to make a comparison, but thus far, I feel the RE050A PPs are just as good if not better. Certainly no reason to spend more on the PS2s IMO.

Ahhh I dont know what im gonna do. I may end up with different tires front to rear. I don't know yet. The Advan sports seem good, but are they as good and sticky as the Kumho MX's?
