lol.. if its called r9998, den i sure buy haha  eheh.. any comparison between r888 vs ad07? from the looks of the thread.. the 888 looks more grippier??  vs  QUOTE(Cahill @ Jul 9 2007, 01:57 PM) if u like grip, i'm sure you will like R888. It semi slick but still street legal in australia. its still ok to drive in the rain compare to others semi slick. This post has been edited by moon*: Jul 9 2007, 02:26 PM

both tires are different category, one is ultra high performance tires, another one is semi slick. sure the r888 will win hands down on dry, and totally lose out on wet. it is more accurate to compare Ad07 with Toyo proxes T1R.  I just bought the Proxes, they are much lighter tires comparing to other brand with same profile.

huuuhuuu.. so exp.. hehe later when go track session more often den only decide  now i have yet to service me b16a engine. QUOTE(Cahill @ Jul 9 2007, 02:46 PM) neova should less than/around RM300 for ur size. toyo R888 much more ex, should be less than/almost double the price. Should consider toyo proxes T1R as well. if for semi, A048 not bad too but R888 still better in wet.
