Anyone used the above mentioned as steer tyres?
I know a couple of the pro lads have been using them
What are grip levels like in comparrison to other leading competative tyres like Kuhmos V70's, 888's, A048's etc ?
Who can get these in Ireland??
Cheers:)
ive never used r1r but people say there a super tyre...ive had the yokohama a048 and cant fault them when they warm up there so good..!!have them just over 2 years and still going strong..!!
i have a new set of new kumho comp tyres here if your interested...there a mad tyre but will only get max 9-10 events out of them
I can get them for you but there not cheap, There good in all conditions apperently dosnt quiet have the grip levels off the 888's obviously but not far off it.Quote:

ya there still loads in them il for sure get till the end of this year out of them...grip in the wet is awesome..i used the r888 in the wet and the a048 is way better..!!the yokohama's are expensive tho think i paid around 420 uk pounds for two at the time...the ad08 is suppose to be a good steering tyre too alot of japanese drivers use them..!!
The kumho;s i have are brand new would need to get 280 for both
I've been running them on the front for the past 2 years... Awesome tyre, grip just as good as the 888 but don't take as long to warm up... Also good in the wet!! Best all rounder I've used!!
R1-R is what the Toyo sponsored D1GP drivers use all round.
Thats good to know, where did ya get them back then Nigel?Quote:
