Default toyo proxes r888

Has anyone used these? They look awesome, and they brought an evo from .88g to 1.00g in some magazine. http://www.streetperformance.com/par...oxes-r888.html

I suggest you read this thread https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...ad.php?t=25809 if you're thinking of running tires meant for road racing on the street.

Awesome on the track, when warmed up like any other race tire. Too fragile for street driving -- I'd be afraid of punctures......or rain !!!!

I just wanted to see if anyone used them, and if they were say streetable enough to drive 75 miles to the track. I definately dont plan on using them every day. My mustang had mickey thompson et streets that I drove in the rain with once, they are pretty much the same concept.
