Is there any word on whether or not the RE-71R is going to be available in wider sizes than 275? Was kind of hoping it would have the same size range as the RE-11

Dang, for some reason I thought the C6 Z06 had remained in SS. Yeah I bet those 305's did look stretched on a 12" wide wheel. Need to campaign Hankook to bring out a 325 for the Z06 and Grandsport.

What was Daddio driving? The results say "2007 Chevrolet Corvette Z". I'm guessing that is a Z51? The Solo rules are sort of confusing on where the C6 Z06 goes.

I went with the pressures from Lane Borg's C5 thread. He run's 32 front 30 rear. I would bleed them down after each run. As Steve points out above though you may want to try 32 in the rear.
