Thanks for all the responses, guys.

That link is awesome! A wealth of information; things I've known to be true but never quite understood until it was all laid out for me. Thanks for that.

While I have several RE-11 driver's in the house, how do you guys feel about doing an AutoX event or two with temps below 40*F? In November when I swapped back to my stock wheels I was noticing that the RE-11 (old 140TW version) was a bit slippery at ambient temps below 40*F...have 3 events in March alone and they're done in a beach parking lot on Long Island's south shore, so temps are generally between 28*F and 40*F for the month of March. Will I be struggling for grip or is one run enough to warm them sufficiently? Can't be worse than the OEM Michelins......can they...?
