I see a fair few are wanting track time this year.
I got a price for tyres for myself the other day and as i buy sets at a time they will do me a deal.
If anyone else is interested I may be able to get prices down even further!
235/40/17 toyo R888 GG medium compond is £135 delivered inc vat.
If your interested put your name down and if you want different sizes please specify.
I will be ordering week on friday.
ps. i make nothing on these, just trying to help out.

if it helps i run r888's all the time. My mates 460bhp sti8 runs t1r's and they are the best tyres he has ever had! We dropped the pressure at smeatharpe and won the class and wasnt far off the best time of he day which was set on r888's! You will see it on sunday mate and the tread is still like new!!

I have to say the car handles great and i was unable to get the car to step out in the wet and could not donut in the snow...
Perhaps the LSD played a part but i love these Tyres.... Cannot believe they have been replaced.

So do tyre traders at the price i listed above.
I had heard the new ones were not so good.
