Will be starting the hunt for some new shoes and wondering if anyone has tried these. From the look's of things, this havent hit our shores publically as there not advertised on the AU bridgestone website yet.

Some info on them so far, although hardly a review:

Plenty reviews on its predecessor RE-01Rs

Comparing tyre appears to be the AD08s due to hit AU shores this august. Who according to Yokohama AU:

If you want a high performance tyre that will give you comfort, low noise levels and good mileage this is not the tyre for you. Please choose the ADVAN Sport.

The RE-01Rs was/is a superb tyre. I've dríven on a set. Very exy though.
I just hope they haven't done what usually happens where they say its a better tyre more refined ya,di,ya...... but taken the excitement out of a superb tyre. Just like in the case of the Falken RT215 & RT615 and many others
Satans Ride called F33nix the resurrected NA6
