So, about those Pirelli's... after going through 2 sets of Toyo RRs, the Pirelli's finally made there way on. All I have to say is OMG! The AP brakes with DTC70 pads have finally met there match. On RE71Rs, the brakes would easily over power them, on Toyo RRs, it was a more even match up. But against the Pirelli's, the APs actually have to work a bit. Ambient temp on test day was 55 deg F and cloudy. The tires have grip for days! And are super consistent. My wife dropped 3 seconds from her personal best and was able to do so for 4 laps in a row. 3 laps being within 0.1 sec of one another.
So if you're not already on these tires, stop, do not pass go, get some!
