    3:24 AM PST, 9/20/2012

    We have a number of Toyo R888 used track day tyres, sized 235-45-17 in GG compound, ranging upwards from 2mm to over 4mm of tread left - remember these have only 5mm of tread to start with. 2 of these tyres can be found in our store which can be accessed from the link below Buy now from our store following this link......... http://www.auctiva.com/stores/viewstore2.aspx?id=1553001&styleid=12&siteid=3 The Toyo R888 is a road legal semi slick tyre ideal for use in sprints, drag racing and track days although for track day use we don't recommend them for heavyweight cars. Only the smoothest of drivers with an optimum chassis set-up will make these last in anything over 1400kgs as the GG compound is fairly soft and is at it's best within a lap or two. Our auction for the two R888's listed ends this Sunday 23rd September so be quick to bag a bargain track day tyre!
