97% (
breakdown) while driving a
Alfa Romeo (190/50 R15) on
track for 125
spirited miles
Fitted these on my 2nd Alfa 155 for a trackday, the dry grip they provide is by any means outstanding, the cornering speeds the car reached were almost on the edge of being described as ridiculous! They seem to be gripping quite well too on wet roads I must say. Up to about 80-90 km/h they are quite but at higher speeds they make some considerable noise.
They did wear very little after a total of 30 laps, "pedal to the metal" action, probably because I had insisted on aligning the wheels as perfectly as possible.
Will be using them again on the next trackday, they can cope with at least as many laps again for sure.

93% (
breakdown) while driving a
SEAT Leon Cupra R 370 hp / 465 Nm (225/45 R17) on
a combination of roads for 1,000
spirited miles
Hi folks, writing especially for those who search reviews about R888R. Tested those at Leon 1M Cupra R 1M BAM @ K04-064 hybrid - 370hp / 465 Nm FWD. Dry grip best ever, full traction on every gear and excellent conditions during fast tight turns. Like glued to the ground. The tyre edges are very strong, so the car dosen't sway on corners. On wet - no traction during acceleration, but still very good driving capabilities, cornering excellent. Dry braking - 10/10. Wet braking 9/10 (cmon it's wet). Tyres are noisy a bit. On wet even more, but something for something. My opinion overall - dry 10/10. Wet. 9/10. Wear is ok. Buy again? Surely.

Mazda MX5 (195/50 R15) on
a combination of roads for 100
spirited miles
Just got them fitted today and this is an initial review based on about 30 kilometers of spirited street driving. Grip level on the streets is just wicked. Have not yet tested on track or in wet conditions, but if anything like their predecessor, the grip should be very good if the surface is wet, but without pools of water.
These are actually very quiet to up to about 80 km/h, but after that they start to make quite a lot of noise. Other than that the comfort level is comparable to any regular summer tire.
Steering feedback is quite good but with 4 degress of caster, they don't center quite as well as my previous Federal RS-R:s did.
