Next question intermediate wet tyres setup

[1985michael182]

So I run full slicks for dry but I need a road legal slick for an intermediate wet.

I have been looking at Toyo R1R, R888, NS2R in 120medium compound to be used for wet days with a bit of standing water and wont melt at a sniff of a dry line.
For full wet I will use rainsport5.

What do you lunatic use?

I use
Toyo R888r for inters
Yoko A048 dry
Uniroyal RS3 for wets/standing water..

My combination hasn't failed me yet...

R888r should be useless on a wet track shouldnt they?

 

[Eddie555]

If its wet wet then yea. But as soon as there is a dry line i swap to them and leave the rear suspension settings in soft.. As it drys i make adjustments to the shocks and push on gradually..

I've got NS-2R on as road tyres at the moment.

Whirr like a beeatch at anything over 40mph, drives me slightly insane, lol, but grip is strong in the dry and firm sidewalls.

Haven't driven in the wet on them yet, though, so I am no help for your question lol

Its raining right now, go test them 😁

Ive ran dunlop dz03g on a damp day, and they were okay as long as got heat in them.😜

If yiu want some proper intermediate wets, my friend can supply Michelin P2L at a very good price (not e marked however, so not road legal) 👍

 

[1985michael182]

[JKING3008]

Why are they not e-marked? Tread pattern looks perfectly reasonable for road use!

Tread pattern may be fine, but it's a competition tyre and as such is not road legal/ E-marked.
