Looking forward to the TireRack closeout sale on the RSs.
Also wonder if these will be as stiff as the Sport Rs since it mentioned these are stiffer than the RSs

I love the RE-71RS on my car, and my only gripe is the lack of sizes.
They’re also great in the rain if you like hydroplaning on the freeway.
This has been my tire choice for auto cross and it’s done amazingly well. Good feedback, good grip, stiff enough even for camber limited cars.
My two complaints is its longevity is not great but it’s a sprinter style tire. It’s not meant for endurance. And honestly, my biggest gripe is the cost.
The Blizzak 6 is closer to the Blizzak LM001 series. Better wet and dry handling, for performance cars vs SUVs and trucks going in deep snow.
Hoping the Bridgestones are better in the wet on this new compound. I hate swapping from yokes to stones and mess up my timing.
Lots of good info on here and from looking at the tire, I think they made a big improvement getting rid of the rib near the outside shoulder and moving all of them in board. My 71RS has shown wear on the outside edge and the outside edge of that outboard rib. This should help mitigate some of that and get a stronger contact patch in the corners.
Mine is a 2018 VA WRX base, I have Blizzaks, WS90 model and they're excellent in deep snow or ice.
I've got Bridgestone Turanza T005s and I like driving with them, they grip well, but I lost two tires in a year. One was during normal driving on a mountain road, maybe I hit the curb, I don't know what's the point if you can't offroad an SUV, and the second was when I was offroading. The sidewalls on these tires are super thin.
I got 360k on an axle of Bridgestone Ecopia and 300K on the other axle.
Bridgestone has always worked for me. Usually go for 350k+.
