The RE-11 is an extreme performance tire which will have even better dry grip and faster steering response than the Pilot Super Sport, but at the expense of ride and wear (and the RE-11 is more expensive as well). It is a great tire for those that frequently autocross in a street tire class or dabble in road racing or drag racing. Based on your comment about drag radials, I'm guessing this would fit your needs very well.

If you move take a slight step down in dry grip and steering response and this is your street tire setup, then the Michelin Pilot Super Sport would be your best bet.

If changing from RFTs to non, do you have to get XL tyres?
