Hi John,
There are two ECSTAs. The old ECSTA V700, and the new ECSTA V710. If
you're talking about rain I can only assume you mean the ECSTA V700, as
the ECSTA V710 looks a lot like a Hoosier A3S03.
As for the ECSTA V700, if you have a choice, stick with the Victoracers.
The difference is, the Victoracers are great and the ECSTAs kinda suck.
Or one Kumho contract driver told me- they are both good at hooking up
and putting down power in a straight line, but once you turn the wheel
the ECSTA starts losing out. AFAIK everyone uses the Victoracer for
rain as well.
The ECSTA V710 is a different story. Haven't tried them, but they are
supposed to be amazing in the dry.

It's time for new tires... I was looking at ECSTA V700, but the seem to
be unavailable right now. Judging by tread appearance, the ECSTA looks
like it would be better in the WET. For those that have run both; What
differences, if any, are there between the 2?
Thanks,
John
