good luck with the r888

That was an important part of info you neglected to tell. Most of us were assuming 18" wheels.... Most of what I said may not apply bc I only know about things that work with 18" wheels.

ill have a look into Pirelli Corsa System and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup

why dont you guys take some clues from someone who has been doing it for some time... and it works period.
for 18 rims BF goodrich drag radials... 295/35/18s ( RWD a must for PASM not to freak out)
for 17s for those more ambitious... MT 275/40/17s...
done deal... proven over and over...
why are you guys still experimenting?????

USCTrojanMan29 is infamous around these parts

I've heard very good things from the BMW track guys about the Nitto NT01s. That being said, I'll be picking up them up to slap on my stockers for next year's track season.
