Did you drive over on the 888's? Did they wear down much? ------------- E46 M3 X5 Evo 9 HD Dyna Glide |

No, I used road tyres for the trip there and back but some of the other guys DID travel on their R888s and had no problems, the ring seems not too bad on tyre wear but that will depend on how you drive and how many laps you intend doing, but personally I would always take both sets just in-case, also if driving through bad weather then you may be grateful for your road tyres. ------------- E28 Alpina B9 E28 M535i (now a donor for B9) E24 M6 (work has started to get back up to scratch) E30 M3 (New Engine (almost), Cams, Brakes, ECU, Suspension, Alpha-N - Thanks Stannard Motors) E39 530i Touring - Now Sold, sob, sob E39 523i Touring |
