    dont forget a full front and rear alignment once everythings installed

    haha cheers for this guys, i am on a budget, thats why i have shit tyres. But in the future will include front and rear swaybars since its a CXi Ek1, Subframe/ ASR, bushes, heaps of suspenison bits, then I move onto the breaks then the engine.

    My proof which may not be big but i have seen it. At Mallala Raceway (near Adelaide) my dads mate races historics in his XU1 Torana gtr (full on group N i believe) and he always uses Toyos, then one day he was short on money and decided to buy second hand Yokohama tyres that were used from the Clipsal 500, and in that day, he made a whole second from them in his first round, second round he made another .3 so basically he made 1.3 seconds with Yokohamas instead if Toyos. Nothing was improved, all he did was the tyres and thats it. It maybe a softer compound than the Toyos but Yokohamas can last as much as toyos or longer, no less unless drifting and burnouts.

    R888 vs A048/A050 is a no brainer. Yes the Yokohama is a faster tyre but for bang for buck, the R888 is hard to go past. Same scenario when it comes to street tyres. Toyo comes out as best bang for buck option.

    Bit of a bold statement.. Depends what you're comparing. I used to run 205 Toyo R1R's for a long time and compared to a friend who ran AD08's at the track our grip levels with very similar setups were very much on par. I then upgraded to 205 R888's and later on went on to 225 AO48 (Mediums) and grip level remained almost identical between those semi's even though I stepped up in size.

    For a bang for your buck performance street tyre, R1R is one of the best from my personal experience, but since you have proof you should go spend double n get the Advans.

    i heard the A048 we get in australia uses hard compound.
    so you dont get as much grip.

    how many sec do you lose on the track switching from R1R to R888?
