i dont think they make this tyre anymore though theyve gone to Grid III
very quiet compared to the Eagle Venturas
haven't seen anyone mention Toyo T1R's, how good are they compare to Bridge stone Re001's?
there is plenty mentioned back, middle of last year........Quote:

I think es100's are renamed s-drive or something now
ES100 was not renamed as S-drive.Quote:
