Ok so after reading both the Grassroots Motorsport tire test as well as the Tire Rack test I am a bit torn. With GRM the Rival S seemed like the clear victor. However, now with the TR test that seems completely wrong. Am I missing something?

I was burned on some issues with the first Rivals (not S), so I went with the RE71Rs and enjoy them immensely... |

I recall the previous GRM result put the Rival as the thing to have... "floats all boats higher." End Result: Lots of Hankooks winning at Nationals. Data don't match? Consider the inputs, and consider the sources.

Am I missing something, or do you guys work for Kumho.....? It's like 25/tire savings I'd be cutting back 100 dollars on the wedding ring, to just buy the tires that are proven to work. I got my Bridgestones with a $75 pre-paid rebate card, and I'm sure they do this several times a year.

Tungsten wedding rings are $15 on Amazon. Losing by .01 is forever.

Where I live, there are three organizations that host autocross events very regularly (SCCA SFR, Lotus Club, AAS), and two other organizations offer some events throughout the year (BMWCCA, PCA). With a codriver and that many opportunities to drive, you can see it's fairly easy to quickly wear out a set of RE-71R that already shows a bit quicker wear. We also have a large venue with a very abrasive surface at our disposal. |

Of course if they suck so bad and I can't stand them anymore, I just might be back on the B-Stones :-) Hoosier addiction is a real thing. Hope weening off the B-Stones will be easier :-) |

Congrats on the win. Either you kicked some serious ass out there or Harvey/Fenter are making sure the ND goes to C-Street lol.
