What complications do you see in this?
R888 205/40/17 with either speedlines 7.5 or 8J?
Standard tyres are 215/45/17 but i used to run 195's/50 on trophy & tyres were 205/45 as standard.
Will the 205 stretch ok over 8J as i have 2 sets of speedlines one standard & one magnesium cupracer...
Probably one of the best colours, b'strd to keep clean:mad:
Don't understand not having recaros:S
Was told by prolific RS buyer/seller that recaros are a must for resale?
Am i correct in that the cup pack don't come with the quick rack of the Cup??
Will wait & see what the 250 meg does to...
Wolf's photos from RS.
Gives some idea of the conditions for the tyre test, for you summer drivers;)

Donington last night conditions everything from dry to rivers:eek:
Well lets just say another set will be ordered as soon as these need replacing.
Dry performance better than Pe2's, Parada spec 2 & conti 3's.
Not got the all out grip of r888's but still playfull on the limit.
Turn in was...
What you are all forgeting is the fact the 197/200 are ncap 5 rated.
Hence stronger & safer.
Also is a lot nicer place to be than in the 172/182 & before i get slated i've had them all.
So for me i'd rather be in the safer car with similar perfomance.
At least unlike some other makes...
The drivers briefing is very important & obviously the driver was not present or not listening.
It's a trackday & not a race FFS!
I do most of my days with circuit-days & during the briefing you are told that the instructors etc are always out on track looking for the dangerous drivers...
Thats why when all the muppets bang on about not needing insurance & what a waste of time, i still get it.
On track your road insurance don't cover you for s**t!
If the driver had been warned several times why was he not shown the black flag & the door??
Bit like the GT3 owner who had a bad...
+1 for the Rs2, i have them & they are awesome.
Had r888's on the trophy these (Rs2's)are better road tyre as you don't get the tractor noise from tyres:mad: that you do with 888's.
All those that rave about Goodyears, you need to look at the 197 site.
All the written off 197's have F1's...
Seen a black Evo at the Ring that was wrapped in white, you could not tell till he opened a door.
Got told the idea was after 2 yrs to remove & sell with mint unmarked paintwork!
1400 euros, thought that was cheap as ventureshield for the 197 bumper is about £2-300.
^^ your old man was funny:D
Heres one of you;
Spot the idiot in the passenger seat;)
Our room with fellow cs'er next door, thats the half lap entrance in the distance.
The crowd were pissing themsevles when this came by, not so everyone else that came across it:mad...
