How are the tires on regular street driving? How is the road noise and how are they in the rain? Thanks!
The tire noise is similar to my previous Pirelli's and Conti's. Wet grip is excellent, and I haven't experienced any hydroplaning.

Regarding the pressures, I found that if I didn't watch my cold pressures, the ultimate hot pressures would result in a poor handling tire (the RE-11's don't like to be overinflated). No really so much of a negative as an educational process.
