Anybody try the Bridgestone S007A (Max Performance Summer) tire yet? Comes in 275/35R19 and 305/30R19 sizes and the prices look pretty good.

Is that a new tire? I haven't seen those before. I'm running the Potenza S-04's in 305/30/19 and really like them. Those S007's are 3 lbs lighter per tire and 240 tw vs 280 tw on the S-04's. If you get them, let us know how they work out. Sounds like a possible good option.

New tire. Loosely based on the S007 that was on for the Ferrari F12. Supposed to be a split between the max performance and extreme performance category. I did a bunch of research a few months ago and found info mostly in Japanese. From what I can tell it's 90% the performance of a Pilot Cup Sport 2 in the dry, about the same as a Pilot Super Sport in the wet, and solid tread life. I cannot find that same article now, so grains of salt all around.

Supposed to be the replacement for the RE11, which slots between the S-04 and RE71R. I'd definitely like to try a set.

Anyone have any experience with this tire on track yet? My RS4s are about done and look to be out of stock in 305/30/19 for quite a while.

Take the leap, we will all thank you for it.

At this point I’m actually thinking of jumping up to some NT01s or R888Rs. The RS4s didn’t last as long as I would have liked mainly because they are directional so rotational ability is limited.

There aren’t many extreme performance tires that are asymmetric. The S007A seem to be assymetric so if they can hold up to track abuse would be an interesting option, but by the looks of the thread design and shoulder block I’m worried that I would destroy those on track sooo I will probably not try a set.
