New Tires Being Installed on the RS

[darrell]

Interesting to note that the improved performance comes with sufficient price increase for them to keep the less expensive RS 3s in a "two-tier" marketing approach.

Thanks Darrell.

I had zero to do with this two-tier marketing approach but I’m happy to see they are willing to offer both the higher performance RS IV tire and continue to offer the original RS III version. I’ve used the RS IV over 9000 miles so far and still have some miles left on it. With the improved handling, additional mileage and costs associated with changing tires it will be interesting if riders just go with the lower priced tire and not consider the other factors.
