Brigestone Potenza RE-12D
Last year i run Dunlop Z3 on local time attack event with my Rx8 had pretty good result
And the rule say 12D is legal too
I will test 12D out same day with z3 on first event 2/23
From Japanese magazine testing and some real life track data
RE12D is faster by aleast sec compare to Re71R and faster then A050 & A052 on average
It also get unique design with should slam down, i think they made this opposite then hoosier to get better feed back from tire
Will mount 265/35/18 on 18 x10.5j et35

The softer the tire it will grease up even faster
