The 595 RS-R is just a hair narrower than the Z1SS. (see my tire thread for pics of them next to each other, both on a rim and loose) Do you know if it would be wider or narrower than the 595 RS-R?

Thanks!

 

Thanks for all the info Mike!
So when are you gonna try the AD08's?

 

Probably never, since the RS3 universally accepted as being faster, as well as cheaper.

 

I've been researching and read that the AD08's run really wide, about 10mm more than what the tire size says
wouldn't that equate to more mechanical grip or advantage?

 

RS3 is really wide and for some odd reason has "R-comp level" grip in the first few heat cycles for about $70-80 less per tire...

 

From my experience, widest to narrowest...

-AD08
-RS3
-Star Spec/XS/RE11

The AD08 is a good amount wider than the rest. I've never done a measurement on it, but visually, it's a big difference. The shoulders are very squared off. Between the SS, XS, and RE11, they are very close.
