<Grin> I'll be getting a set of rims and snows within a
month, the R tires will have to wait till next year anyway.

The Pilots didn't chunk and zI was running them with 35 psi hot
and then down to 34 psi hot, it seems to help with the flex so I
run them on the street that way too.
I'm considering the Bridgestone RE-71's or the Toyo T1-S to
replace the Pilots which will be fried by next year.
The Toyo's are really too new but how are the RE-71's
chunking and flat spotting?

I was told I should shave the R compounds as they will chunk
esp. the Kuhmo's but that's why I'm here to learn. :)
Your help really is appreciated. Thanks...
