After looking at the chart it doesn’t seem to be a very dramatic difference between the RT660 an the Bridgestones . But I will check them out .
You're right, there's not that much difference at normal temperatures. However, as temperatures drop below 65F, you'll find the RT660s are more troublesome than the RE-71R. This is especially noticeable in fwd cars because there's little you can do to get heat into the rear tires.

It's unfortunate that tire evaluations rarely go into temperature effects. The tests are all designed to find out what's the best the tire can do rather than how long it takes to get the tire into good shape.
