...yokohama a048r's and Dunlop DZ02G tyres?

After some track day tyres and camskill have got a good offer on the toyo's at moment.
Or am i best going for one of the other brands?

 

I have 888s on my road car, the best tyre I have driven on.

 

Im after ones that perform on track though.

If the other brands are better then i dont mind paying the extra.

 

What only on the track? so if you hit the pits will they just run away or something?

 

What they like in the wet mate? Heard their a fookin nightmare!?

 

I use R888 on my 3dr cossie on track & can't fault them, would not hesitate to buy them again, not used the others so can't comment on them.

I thought camskill were the cheapest but their not, i bought mine from www.tyretraders.com really quick delivery aswell.

R888 are to noisey for road use, iv'e tried them on the road,grip like fook but to harsh a ride & noisey for the road.

Simon.

 

No, in comp. to the toyo t1s(very good tyre) 30% more grip in the dry and 10% more in the wet. Thats what the toyo rep said, and feels about right, I love em. Yes in the sexual way.

 

ive tried 3 times to get into the mytyres site and each time it fooks my internet up

 

Think you'll have to prove how good they are, and not in the sexual way young man!

 

Dunlop DZ02G fantastic tyre by all accounts!

Dont you worry when my head gets cams and flowed you with drop a little brown fish

 

Yokos are incredible and look cool if a tyre can look cool

 

FPMSL Just dont do a cuvner! Thats the last thing I need!

 

I use R888s on track, have just bought my second set for the Cossie, and first set for my Mi16 Pug 205.

They are amazing, and on track are just leagues ahead of normal good road tyres.

I also know a man who does very good prices on R888s (or any Toyos for that matter) - PM the size you're after and I'll find out and let you know how much!

cheers for the help peeps.

Think i'll be going for some dunlops as it seems a lot of people say the toyo's go off a lot quicket than dunlop's and yoko's!

 

Ask Tony/Nuts about tyres - think he recommends the dunlops.

 

I run on Parada's and I can't fault them. Loads o' grip

 

But ive seen you at Bedford,car spends more time on the grass

 

Think that's more an Operator Error thing though

Anyway I kept off the grass this year..

just had a quote from selecta tyre :

2 x 225/40/18 Toyo T1-S all inclusive, fiiting valve balance and vat £195


cant say fairer than that

having them fitted 2morrow after work

 

Oranoco, i use Parada 2's on my road wheels & have used them on track before aswell, very good road tyres & better than most other road tyres on track but if you invest in another set of wheels for trackdays with R888's you will not believe the difference

simonc

how much tread is ont them from new

ive had a dablle with som yoko A032R a coulpe of years back, and they are only 4mm from new, only got 2.5K miles from a set at 150 quid a corner

 

Dave 5mm from new, i don't bother using them on the road. Should last about 4 - 6 trackdays depending on how you drive.

A freind of mine was in a 4x4 saph stage 1 with R888 & he was quicker than his mate in a evo 6 tommy makinen with road tyres, the evo was holding him up once the road tyres started to overheat he was sliding on every corner, that was at Lydden.

I had some meduim yoko a048r's on front of my fez at bedford and they lasted one day before being down to the wear indicators

Backs are softs and done 3 days and still have a few days in them though.

 

yeah get some of them

 

Erm no thanks im not into drifting
