  • Toyo R888 225/40R18 92 Y ZR Any Experiences?

    As in the topic. Are they worth the price? Of course to be used with S2.

    no personally used them but know a few on here that have. They are a fabulous tyre but as you say pretty expensive.

    You could also try the road legal track typres from Dunlop, kumho and Pirelli as again, heard very good things about them.

    Have personal experience of the kumho V70a's that i have a set of on some Oz super Legerra's. Amazing dry grip and the medium compund which i have seems to have worn pretty well too.

    Try Camskill or Protyre for prices too.

    Hope that helps,
    David

      I am using Pirelli P Zero Rosso, same size and looking for something more "summertime" with better grip on dry and good sidewall protection. For winter i have another set of wheels.

          not sure i would use them as an everyday tyre personally, wear rate will be pretty high i'd expect...

              Yes they are worth the price according my experience

              Good grip and handling compared to price

              One set last approximatly 50-60 laps at the Ring in ~400hp S2. Of coarse depending on "attack mode".
