Do you really want old tires? I get the collector mentality but at a certain point a rotten tire is a rotten tire.

Well has anyone really found a better or same tire without making a major change in size of the tire?... I love the tire.... What do you mean by rotten? the RE010 I have now are still holding up... just need to replace the fronts because of wear.itrsteez wrote:Do you really want old tires?

I am also looking for a source that produces the Type-R bra(nose mask) for 1997.

Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec in 195/55/15. That's a better tire.

You will have to find one of the nose masks used or second hand... they come up time to time.huey9ball wrote:Well has anyone really found a better or same tire without making a major change in size of the tire?...

Even if your tires still look okay visually, old tires can fail. Tires have a shelf life.
