The car isn't really a day-to-day car any more, but it still gets considerably more use on the road than on-track. I was going to buy R888 trackday tyres this time, but when I saw the R1Rs I thought they'd suit my useage better.
I was a bit concerned over what they'd be like in the wet. This week, I got the chance to chuck it about a bit on a very wet day. I built up a lot of confidence in the tyres. I even tried hard to get them to aquaplane without success, although I'd normally err on the side of caution in those conditions.
I've never got more than 8k out of front tyres in the last couple of years, I'm not overly concerned if these turn in less, although I'll keep an eagle eye for uneven wear and will immediately get my alignment checked.
