At the time yes. Apart from some brake pads but that's completely un related.

Interesting.

I'll go with what you say. Thanks Tony However trying to understand it confuses me lol. Surely more width means more grip. Even if you have to move water no? Otherwise you could argue that a car on slim steel wheels with 105mm or whatever for example would be better in the wet than a car on...

You're probably right. I was just being generous and didn't want to burst any bubbles. Seems Kyle has already done that now though FLOL

Surely that's better then, but why are they cheaper than the 82s?

Thanks. Just had a quick look. Works out at £273.18 on there for 4 delivered. Thats 205mm tyres. £154.34 all in for 195s but that's 86V whatever that means? £205.72 all in for 195s with 82V. What's the difference between 82V and 86V? Also is it worth going for the extra width? I didn't...

I'd predict that figure to be around 190bhp on surrey rolling road.

:lolup:

Cheapest place to buy these R1Rs? Before I start looking around..

Some really good work there mate. Best colour too ;-) I've got some matched inlets if you go down that route.

V-Tec Yo!!

They're fine. I've had Eibach Sportline sprigns on for over a year of trackdays.

What's the reasoning behind this? Wonder how much it actually costs too...

You can see the results on YouTube too ;) 257bhp and 188lbft.

Anyone seen the results on their Facebook page. Seriously impressive. Would love to be able to afford one!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWRlnNty3wU&feature=youtu.be

Thanks for that mate, just answered the exact question I asked Josh!

So would you spend £750 odd no those rather than £995 for the ASTs?

First bad word I've heard about them

I'm thinking a good 10 hours on Saturday.

Right where and how do I buy. Can't read all this and not get involved. Best to ring Josh?

Re: sonny172cup "track racer project" That's very very nice of Matt!

Horrible to hear. R.I.P

Matt at Code Red Motorsport is only in Tonbridge. Or Mike in Staines

I'm liking this ;-)

Thanks for your comments. I think I'm going to go for the Toyo R1Rs

Awesome thanks Tony. Set of 888s for the dry and damp then a set of these for the wet and rain should do me then. Apart fromwhen the 888s start to get towards the end of their cycle. But that's life.

Think I might give them a go thanks. Any idea how they compare to say a top spec Michelin road tyre in the rain?

When you say dry, do you mean when it stops raining or actually dry? I wouldn't use them in the damp or dry because obviously have 888s for that. So as you say using these in the pissing rain they're awesome but what about when it stops raining and the track is still wet and slippery? Or...

What are they mate? For pissing down rain and for wet?

Yeah I think that's my issue here. Running the current set too low. I guess it's only a short time frame though from when they are at this point to when they become unusable? This is my first set of R888s ever so treading on new ground here.
