Ive read that toyos 888 were being banned next year......BUT......toyos have said "a small modification will make their tyres compliant".......wahoo! :D 8)

[Jamie.]

I thought you were going to say Toyo have gone into administration. ****ing hate Toyo tyres.

[col]

OOOOOh touched a raw nerve eh ?.... :lol:

[Coops]

what about ones already on cars on the road :?:

[col]

Didnt say but you might need them re cut ? Anyway coops yours will have been worn out by then!.......or was that a general question?

what about ones already on cars on the road :?:

Existing tyres will be fine - just need to have correct tread depth, etc. as you would today. It will just apply to new tyres that can be sold once the new rules come in - need to have a minimum level of wet weather performance, low noise, etc. which MAY effect some of the more extreme road legal tyres available today.

Yey, more stupid rules and regulations making the world a less fun place to live.

[Coops]

faf, imo my r888's are significantly better in the wet than most 'budget' tyres and frankly a lot of the pricier ones aswell, road noise is however slightly elevated :oops: :lol:

col, i was interested as thinking of buying a set for when these die as can get a decent deal atm so was going to keep them on stock as it were

[webby]

what price can you get them coops? i can get them 60 quid a corner iirc from my source.

[Coops]

as yet unsure, on a big groupbuy but diddy is still to price up atm

[col]

Hi guys, yea coops my lad said his r888 were better than his previous tyres,an was surprised how good they were in the wet,considering the lack of tread.

Price wise, Webby,my sons 13" wheel size for 888 cost £50 a corner delivery free (that was over xmas,speial deal)....off the internet 8)

[webby]

yeah, 50 quid is good for a 13 i guess but 6- quid for a 15 to my door seems just as good all year :lol: round
