I am driving the Focus RS Mk II. Such conduct not experienced on any tires. Keeping Incredible !!! Stable when braking from high speeds. I advise you to be careful on the wet;). Economics ...- forget;) To sum up: others already in the summer do not buy!

With a clear conscience recommend it to people who likes a fast ride and good grip ... especially those pursuing the quarter mile. The best tire for severe driving with road homologation.

I selected the Toyo R888 as a replacement to the standard fitment of Yoko Advan 0048's which are the Lotus standard fit. The Yoko tyre is only available through a Lotus dealer and is much more expensive. Once the R888's are warm the grip level increases dramatically giving excellent adhesion with the road surface. They do lack rigidity compared to the Advan 0048's which have been specifically designed for the Lotus Exige's cornering ability. All in all an excellent replacement tyre and will continue to use the R888's.

Excellent tyre for race / track day use, gives good grip ang consistent cornering feel. The operating window for this tyre is dry or damp pattern does not suit wet.

The tyre works well on any kind of a trackday events. Rather, I would not recommend to drive on normal roads - its potential in dry conditions it is difficult to use in normal road traffic in the event of rain ahead of us in all, including babies.

Superb dry day track tyre with lots of grip. I never used these on the road so no idea of their durability in road use but on track they wear very fast. After one track day they were down to the wear markers! These tyres allow you to really explore a cars handling & have a safety barrier doing it.
