I run them on my Mk6 Golf R in STH. I would not recommend daily driving on them as they are very loud. They do have excellent dry grip but not the best as others are noting in this thread. These are a great starter tire if you aren't looking to get the best edge in equipment, or a good change of pace if you want to challenge yourself to be a better driver.

Pros: excellent dry grip
Cons: very loud

I have them, run them on my ES miata, couldn't be happier with their performance on the course. I've heard the re71r is a bit more predictable with stepping out and I would believe that. Also, for daily driving, these things hum like there is a cessna flying low behind you. I have won ES Class in one of the events I ran them in against 6 or 7 others.

Pros: happy with performance
Cons: very noisy
Vehicle: Mazda

The premium contact 6 is a very good summer tire. Not the sportiest out there but overall grip in normal summer conditions is around best in this class.

Pros: very good grip
Cons: not the sportiest
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I would put that money into a good set of carbon aero bars, a good aero helmet, or some really nice tubeless tires gp5000, etc.

Pros: good tubeless tires

The federal RS-R and RS-RR are unbelievable on the front. I have drifted at 60mph through puddles and never once understeered. On dry they are crazy grippy as well.

Pros: crazy grippy, no understeer

My MKVI came with the Continental Procontact tires. I have 37k miles on them and found that after 30k miles, the noise, especially on concrete got pretty loud. The ride was relatively good and not too stiff though.

Pros: ride relatively good
Cons: noise on concrete
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 59545 km
