i have RE001's on the front of my car with SK's full kit. Havnt really pushed her yet, but from what im feeling, a nice tire, plenty of wear, plenty of grip. Definately putting them on the rear aswell not the cheapest tire tho!

thats a good price, in perth a person was quoted $300/tyre for 225/40R17.

which i was more than disappointed about seeing as i can get RE01-R in 235/40/17 for $330

Yum, RE-01. Do they sell those in Australia officially?

The local Bridgestone Motorsport dealer in perth sells them.

Anyways i ended up going with the RE001 as i got a set for a good price. And i can say they unbelievably good, i was thinking they would be similar grip level to the G3 (which where my last two sets of tyres) but they are miles ahead in terms of grip.

I was running them on the front for a drift practices and the whole night (2-3hrs) the front end never lost grip and held the cars line.

I am very impressed by the RE001, and can't wait to take them for a grip lap and see what sort of times i can put down :P

Getting a set of these for my car on monday.. Believe it or not it will be cheaper to buy the 235/45 over a 225/45. they are more widely used and are cheaper.. My cousin is NSW area manager at bridgstone and is getting me the tyres cheap, so thats how i know!

RE-01® and RE-001 are different tyres no?

I've used RE-01, pretty damn grippy. Next best thing to a semi I think. They came with a set of rims from Japan.

Also, driven a WRX on RE001, also a awesome tyre but a lil exxy. Very quick response with changes in direction and well planted.

$280 for 215/45/17
