Anyone tried YOKOHAMA A048R?

Pretty certain I saw a used set of these in Jurgens workshop last time I was up there, he might be able to tell you.

From what i've read, they're not supposed to be quite as good as the R888s.

 

These are the Dunlop track tyres: http://www.stuckey.com.au/news_200405-04.aspx

 

Camskill sell them, not sure how good they are or what sizes they come in though.

I'm also looking for a decent 'dry' weather tyre for when i put my new turbo on and up the boost. R888's seem the best at the moment but am open to other recommendations.

Anyone know if a 295/30/19 will fit ok on my 10"wide rim?

I'm thinking they may be a tad big. They don't do anything in between a 265 and a 295 in 19's which is a shame.

They make a hell of a whine on the road, and I didn't think there was a huge increase in grip over the Bridgestone RE01R's. To be fair though the Bridgestone is an outstanding road tyre.

 

They were nice and progressive on the limit though, a LOT more feel.

 

Can't comment on the wear as these are the first set of S-Tyres I've used. Taken some abuse and still some tread left so not complaining.
