I think MIke made the switch to Bridgestones.

The BT-002 DOT race tires or the BT-002 Racing Streets?


If you're referring to the latter, yes, I currently have them on my 1K and I definately love them. I'll never run Pilot Powers again after these, got em in a 190/55 rear

I'm thinking of giving em a try. I've always had good feeling from their street tires that I've used on the track...very predictable grip fade. I would imagine that the race tires would have simular characteristics

That's what I was thinking. I've always liked their street tires. If you get a set, let me know.

Well yeah, that's kinda how all tires look when they are new.



A scenic trip to the office and back removed them.

the feel from the rear is very symilar to the pirellis, you dont have to change much on the suspension. the front tire is very good. the rear is good as well. they tend to wear more agressivly then the pirellis. they are solid tires honestly i really like them.
