[s-cars] summer tires

[Taka Mizutani]

If you're starting off with replacing RE050PP, you're not going to be happy
with the budget choices.

I'd go with RE-11. Worlds better from everyone I've talked to and I agree
with the assessment, I love them on my Corvette. If you're going to get
tread noise and thumping, you're definitely going to hear it with 265s and
305s.
