How long for RE050A's to come in?

Just mounted a new set of RE 050A's which I purchased at the awesome price of $ 79.00 & 80.00 Ea from Tire-Rack.

These are going to be my " street " tires since I'm staying with Kumho MX's for my Auto-X/Track Day set.

See the steal here--->Bridgestone S2000 stock size RE050A Close-Out

My question, these things look a bit more oily than usual, maybe they have a heavier amount of release agents in them? I dunno, but I was wondering if anyone else could advise how long to wait before I push them hard.

Sorry to say Mulder, at 8 miles, your opinion does not count!

Wow...quite a bargain for these tires! Nice job Richard! I have rode in Mulder's S2K and it handles quite well...I'm sure you'll be pleased with their performance.

Speaking of tires...I need to visit Tire Rack soon for a full replacement...ugh!
