Default Re: Toyo vs. Nitto

I've had these Toyo R888's on the car for 1 1/2 years, 3K mi. I'd get a shot of the wear, but the car is in the shop at the moment.

They stick like glue in the dry, and just OK in the wet. I'm very happy with them so far.
Even as soft as they are, they'll probably age out before they wear out.

As little as most ZR-1's get driven, I think these are the ideal tires for the car.
I think expensive, long wearing , all weather tires are a waste of money on these cars.
