You should try one of the hero 200tw tires before you make that statement. I like my RS4s, but the RE71 and Rival are a step above in terms of grip. I'm gonna miss the temperature tolerance and wear levels of the RS4 when I switch to Rivals this season. Maybe another wheelset is in my future, with RS4s for street and open lapping days, and Rivals for racing.

Not really. The general consensus is that 225 on a 9 is faster than 225 on an 8. And 245 on a 10 is faster than a 245 on a 9. But comparing different sizes on the same wheel size depends on a lot more factors.
