Not a ton of sizes yet apparently - though they do have mine. I'll definitely need some tires soon but here's the dilemma... Regular ZIIs in my size are going for $167+16ish shipping per tire. Works out to about $731-ish shipped. PLUS a $50 rebate Visa. 

The new Star Specs are another $21 per tire with no rebate. Of course we basically have zero info on the new models.. but based on the last Star Specs, they should be a better tire.

What would YOU do? New, (likely) awesomer version? Or cheaper old version with a rebate?

	What is the min. treadware for next year to stay in Street Class? Wasn't it 200 or 220?

	I believe (will go look it up) that next year is still 200 but I do think it is going up after that. Edit: It's still 140 for this year but goes up to 200 for next year. That's it.

	Seriously? We don't do this to save money, so go for the maximum grip. You can never have enough, after all.

	Z2 Star Specs all the way. I read through the Japanese website and its gonna be a sweet tire (note: I cannot read Japanese). With that said I have 4 new RS3 V2s sitting next to me.
