Thanks, Bridgestone RE11S 225/45R17

They're not hard, they just look new and shiny.
Really amazing grip, and they last very well with track use.

Here's what a worn one looks like...

Interesting, I was at the skidpan as well, but I think I missed you o.O. Do you have the 086TRD registration?

Sorry for the highjack - how are you finding the Eibach springs compared to stock?

I have a Dark Metallic Grey 86 with the BRZ wing and BRZ exhaust (no fancy lip or any such things). The TRD kit looks really good . If it was you guys braaing at the top of the hill I had a twinge of jealousy over the smell

Are the owners of the Dark Metallic Grey BRZ on the forums? They showed some improvement over the day - it was their first time out at the skidpan.
