Also, you wouldn't be able to buy any RE070's off me anyway, 'cause if I had a set, I'd wear 'em out!
that was great!!!! what I meant was is there anywhere you can get them new? and a link would be helpfull

Yeah, they only sell them as "stock replacements" they don't sell other sizes.

That's a possibility, I never seriously considered ordering them. I just happened to see them because I browse tires and wheels on TireRack as if I had an '04 STi for fitment reasons.

Like the Azenis Sports, the RE070's are already as wide as a true 235, and even some 245's! Those measurements aren't really all that accurate.

However, a set of 10" wide RE070's would rule.

Here's a good link, with cheap prices.

http://edgeracing.com/

So now that I'm buying some rims, should I go with all seasons on the rotas, and flat black-sticky tire the stock rims for autocross duty? Or just leave the sad ass re92's on the stockers and roll some nice tires onto the rotas that'll double as auto/street tires?

Chris.

Your best deal on tires is here, through Khail.

I'd put autocross stickies on the Rotas and save the stockers/RE92s for winters.
