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?

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.
