I personally like the RC1 better than the NT01, both are slower than the modern super-200 tires but last a decent amount of time. Can't go wrong either way.

I just hit up another guy on Insta who I haven't met and runs in my area and he said 4. Guess I am going to just have to find out. 4 was all I got on RT660's.

I saw similar (conflicting) reports on every tire I looked at, even on the same platform (although it seems (and makes sense) that heavier cars go through tires quicker). Hard numbers are hard to come by (no pun intended), but the general feel is fairly consistent - RS4 (and RS3 before it) "wear like iron", even though some people manage to go through a set in one weekend; A052/RE71 give good lap times for the first few and wear like butter (and still there are people that complain that they don't grip); etc. That's why I brought up the NT01 - it is consistently praised as a good HPDE tire - good wear, predictable and consistent.

It's like when the 660 came out everyone saying it is like an RE71R that lasts longer and is more heat tolerant. Everyone local to me across a bunch of platforms didn't have that experience lol.

The 86 Cup tires list (at the very bottom) might be relevant for this discussion. The +1 point tires aligns more or less with what we discussed here and what I saw on other platforms for DE tires. I'm sure they focus more on traction than wear and heat tolerance, but I think it might be a good starting point (at least better than manufacturers' TW rating or category (Max/Extreme/R-comp)).
Would be interesting to see the updated 2023 list. |

Yes, that list has some problems. A Toyo RR is absolutely not on pace with a Hoosier, it fits into the other 100tw tires, should be swapped with the SC3R. There is also a spread between the listed 100tw tires and the super 200 tires in the same group.
The GRM chart is a little overly generalized, but it is pretty good.

The 615K+ is a 200TW tire though isn't it?

You are right. For some reason I had it in my head it was one of those 220-300 range tires. I only have one day of experience on them, in a car that wasn't mine.
