Bridgestone RE11
OK so i've pretty much decided on the B/S RE11 for my '05 S2k
Suspension and wheels are all stock
Going to go with 225/45R17 in the front and 255/40R17 in the back (tad wider than stock).
I only really drive it on sunny days so dry traction is what I'm looking for.
Only hesitation I have on ordering them (other than they're kinda pricey) is that if front size only comes in "xl " load rating, where the rears don't.
On the B/S website, it says they only make these sizes (whether 215/45R17 or 225/45R17) in the "xl".
Obviously then, everyone with these tires in those size has the "xl's" up front, so does anyone notice any difference? Maybe harsher over bumps?
Just looking for some input before I commit.
Thanks,
