Toyo R888s or Yokohama A048r?

I need to new tyres on the wheels going on the rear of my car.
The fronts have A048rs with about 3-4mm of tread left on them, the rears are not road legal.
I'm debating the choice between the A048s or R888s but don't know what to go for.

r888s work out at £70 a corner, A048s are £83.
I need 205/60/13s at the rea as they're a 7 inch wide wheel.

If you were replacing them all, I'd say go for R888's. As it's only the rears which you're looking to replace, I'd say go for the A048's - unless you have any particular issues with them.

I'm running r888's on 205/40/17's & they have been outstanding & give fantasic grip, as long as you get you pressure spot on, especially on the track.
