I'm glas they are making these 17 inch tires wider than 255mm... Will probably upgrade when my Star Specs wear out.

We will be doing a tire test soon with the XS, RE-11, Dunlop Star Spec and the Advan Neova. I will post the results when we finish.

Jim, I know these tires are asymetrical, but are they directional?

Can't wait for the review!!

LOL! Oops; my mistake.

I guess this one isn't as simple... I would guess front left as well, but not as obvious.
