I love my RE070's

What's left of them anyway.... I wish I had RE01R's...Azeni RT615's for the spring track season though. Too bad we cant put that huge a tire in the limited space we get in the STI's without having to roll or modify our fenders. 255/40/17 all around coming... any other suggestions would be gladly heard, but the azenis are cheaaaap.

I think the GT-R is all about giving the driver the best tools that it can, if tires are part of that then they are part of the package. RC, you can't argue that these tires don't COME on the car, they do so they arent "modified" to get the performance. If you start knocking the car for coming with the tires that were necessary to make it handle as well as they saw fit, then I think you're running out of arguments.

It was underrated in power and comes with sticky tires. Its got a techy awd system and a relatively good chassis. I think that if it didn't have all that extra weight, it wouldn't just beat the porsches, it would demolish them. So look at it this way, the rest of the marks are just lucky that the beating isn't that painful.

Just accept that the GT-R is the god of all cars RC
