$1 schreef:$2at is eigenlijk het verschil tussen de R1R en de R888?
Snel even een paar i-net quotes:
$1 schreef:$2rom what ive read from toyo / european & yank reviews. the only real difference betwwen them and 888's is the tread pattern so better in the wet. they also have a deeper tread by 1mm and weigh slightly less.
theyre a tiny bit less grippy when new due to more tread block movement & less contact patch etc (often the lesser grip seems to be because theyve been compared with the soft medium compound of 888s) but get grippier the more theyre worn down apparently.
I went for R1R's, mainly because i wouldnt notice the slight difference in grip with 888's / have the talent to maximise that slight difference. (id assume the difference is very very minimal anyway) I also thought the weather in the UK is far too unpredictable, so tyres that are quality in all weather's seems best for me. + they were a bit cheaper, and there was a discount at the time reducing the cost by £100.
Theyre said to last longer, but i think this is just people comparing the 888 soft medium with the R1R medium (obv medium would last slightly longer)
I havnt actually used them yet though, so the above is based upon reviews from the US reviews and from toyo's website
$1 schreef:$2888 semi slick
r1r not semi slick
r1r more on street race use,r888 more on track driving
r1r wear much much more faster then advan neova ad07,sidewall very hard
r1r dry grip better then advan neova ad07.but less grip compare to r888
r888 wear faster then r1r
r1r wet grip better than advan neova but still not good enough in wet.(dun drive fast in wet)
r888 aquaplanning more serious then r1r in wet.
if u can tolerate the tyre wear fast then go for r888.semi slick always better then street radial in dry
dun shoot me,just telling wat i experience
Dit is misschien ook wel interessant voor mensen die nog steeds laag willen blijven rijden met R1-R's, en nu al amper plaats over hebben in hun wielkasten:
$1 schreef:$2any are running the size of 235/40/17 in STREET tires with no rub on the NC with 48mm offset. That R1R is sized like a race tire....OVERSIZED. We had some Toyo 205.50/15 R1Rs in the shop recently next to a stack of Toyo 215/45/15 T1R. Guess which stack of tires was actually taller when stacked up four tires high? Despite the listed sizes, the R1R stack was half an inch higher. Tire makers always cheat on sizes intended for race use and Toyo is pretty serious about winning STS and STS2 with the R1R. The Toyo is even more oversized than the Falken Azenis RT-615. Here is a picture looking over a stack of just TWO 205/50/15 Falkens at just two 205/50/15 Toyo R1Rs....it shows how massively bigger the Toyo really is. And notice the additional two R1Rs in the background...one of the widest 205/50/15s I have seen.

Driving takes three abilities: Accelerating, braking, and turning. More power only helps acceleration. Lower weight helps all three.
