Guys, I am thinking of getting this tyre for my next tyre change. Currenly I am using Michellin Pilot Sports II (PS2). Anyone has comment or knows / uses R1R before ?
By data comparisons, this tyre should perform better than PS2 but it cost almost half it's price compare to PS2 so I am thinking about it. PS2 too expensive to get another set.
Should be very grippy in dry due to it's crazy traction rating and treadwear. R1R treadwear rated 140 compared to 220 on PS2 (220 for AD07 Neova and 280 for T1-R for comparisons sake).
However, I am a bit sceptical on R1R's wet performance especially on anti-hydroplanning when I look at it's tread design and the 140 treadwear means I have to change it every 8k-10k which is the part that I am really hesitating !
Any sharing from anyone whom has uses or experience R1R is most appreciated.?
