Andys right. Road tryes are no where near the likes of 888s and ao48s etc, regardless of what car they go on.

Camskill are usually alright for prices -

or ebay for almost dead ones. tbh for what you want id get some used ones and a cheap 2nd set of wheels if you dont have some already.

tyres arent even in the same leagues.


S drives/ tr1 are wank, would not use for track,

track tyres are r888 and better a048

Being honest i dont think you can beat eagle F1 GSD3's if you hvent got much track experience there a fantastic tyre.

You cant compare all 4 in the poll at the same time though, should be t1r's vs s-drives
and the 888's against the yokos and also be asking what compound to go for too!

Personally i'm using hancook RS2's next time i'm on track
