Just curious to know if anyone has a picture comparison of these 2 tires on a 17x9 wheel

the re71r by what everyone is saying runs a little narrow compared to the dunlops but is it really a noticeable difference just by looking at them

wanted to get some opinions and a picture if anyone has one

re71rs have a much higher grip compound than the ZIIs

And are even noisier. Which is why I'm not getting either this time (had the Z2stars two years ago).

Concerned about handling or cosmetics?

They're both noisy AF. They're both a fairly bad decision unless you're TRACKING the car.

Tire rack has specs on them for width. That mmay help you.

I would venture to say that the Z2 runs wider. The 71R has more grip, hands down.

If I suggested buying a set of RA1's or R888's to drive around on the street, you'd think it was a bad idea. But nobody seems to have the same sentiment with 71R's because the manufacturer put a "200" TW on them.

I would say 71r is noticeably louder over painted lines, not annoyingly loud, but it sounds like your peeling off all the paint and tar on the road
