Hi
Not personally - but chatted them over with a mate last year who'd tried them
Basics we're that the Medium is really a Hard, and their Soft is more akin to a Medium - compared to a 888 or an AO48.
For Track days and road use on a 7 that made the Soft OK - but if you're doing any short distance competition (hills / sprints) they took too
long to warm up.

track days and on the road more tread pattern than toyo 888 that's the other option

I've got 15's on my ZX9R gts, not as good as 888's on track but very good on the road well worth using and a lot cheaper got mine

Toyos are £25 cheaper for 4 than the nankang on 13 wheels but I 50/50 road and track mileage so not sure which would be best ?

Have been looking at the nankangs also, seem to have some good reviews. Pneus online have them at £55.10 each which seems to be a fair bit cheaper
than r888. For that price it might be worth giving them a go !

The new R888r might be worth looking at. Not seen any prices yet...
