Early on they were fine. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93071-where-to-go-after-r888/page/2/#findComment-1635461 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsonian101 Donating Members 961 Member For: 16y 9m 24d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 29/03/17 05:56 AM Share Posted 29/03/17 05:56 AM I have run 2 sets of R888 285 30 18 on the back of my street rims. (One set of 245: 345,000kms on the clock I go through a few sets :)) 2nd set I had 2 extra grooves put down the centre for wet ability. Made the road noise even worse but helped with water until half worn. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93071-where-to-go-after-r888/page/2/#findComment-1635479 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty good so far, equal to the original r888 in the dry, better in the wet and much quiter. Nelsonian101 - your tyre dude know his stuff as the new r888r allready has a groove now Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93071-where-to-go-after-r888/page/2/#findComment-1637462 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be very sticky. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93071-where-to-go-after-r888/page/2/#findComment-1640732 Share on other sites More sharing options...
