AP1 DD/AutoX Tire Recommendations
 
I bought a 2003 AP1 last year (completely stock) and it had Fuzion ZRIs on it which I found to be pretty much garbage but I figured I'd feel them out for the season. This year I'll be doing a fair amount of AutoXs and want to stay in the B Street class and decided that I need something better than the Fuzions.

I'm looking for the best dry-grip 200 treadwear tires to stay in B street. I'm not too concerned with wet grip, road noise, ride, or treadwear. I was leaning toward the RE-11s but the tire rack test results show the BFG g-force tires to have better dry grip. Anyone have experience with these 2 tires? Any other recommendations for an AP1?

I wanna say for Auto X the Dunlop Direzza II Star Spec and the Hankook Ventus RS3 were two popular tires with S2ks at nationals.

^^^ Bridgestone RE71s seem like they will be a good choice as well, but there's not a lot of hot weather data on them yet. BFG rivals will get a tread compound update soon, and toyo R1R's will become 200tw as well... those pretty much sum up the most popular autox tires.

RE11 and BFG sport comps are a step below the rest in dry grip, but they're generally better DD tires due to less noise and better wet grip.

i work for bridgestone so i get a 50% discount on RE-11A's, with that said, however, probably the best street tire ive ran so far...im really excited for the RE71R's to come out so i can try those out...should be shipping out sometime in late spring
