Decent sticky but not track day tyres...
what are people using? i dont do any miles at all really, but wanted some kinda sticky tyres for the rear of the sapph but not ones that are like driving on ice in the rain which ive heard the toyo and yoko's are like...
trying to find pradas, but do they make them anymore?
any views would be great thanks

Goodyear eagle f1's are a very good all round road/track tyre, had them on a 2wd cosworth and they did well

as above toyo r1rs are a good all rounder similar if not the same rubber as r888s but come with far more tread depth and good enough in the wet
