As above really. Im looking ahead to MOT day with the new engine, and i want some stickies, but not R888's as i think i will wear them out too quickly.

Apparently, the Proxes R1R is the intermediate before the R888 and is a slightly harder wear. It also comes with 6.5mm of tread as opposed to 5mm on the R888.

So, im looking for the cheapest shop for them!

doesn't get much cheaper than this, if these will do. even with shipping across the pond, it's a deal.

camskill are usually very good on price! r888's will last well in a light car. medium compound should last a good while!

Thanks Guys, im even looking at the T1R which is one back again (and cheaper! )

In my experience I don't think much of the t1rs, great as a commuting tyre but the r1rs are amazing in comparison. My car is an Elise so might be different to a seven.

You'll be surprised how long r888s in medium can last if your car is very light. Especially if mixing in a good bit of road use as you can never push as hard on the track

how many miles from a set is acceptable to you and will you be doing many track days? Then work backwards from that.
