I bought mine locally, as did a variety of other people on here.

I would suggest that you find your nearest few Toyo dealers and try and get the best price you can.

I paid £260 fitted/balanced etc to give you an idea...

Regards,
Steve

my local tyre place quoted me £300.00 fitted, so i bought some mint team dymanics pro 1.2 alloys with toyo's 888s's fitted for £350.00, inc fuel for a good friend who picked them up for me.





Thank's, Joe

some people say camskill (google them) are competitive you have to phone or email for prices. Let us know what they are charging if you contact them.

Depending on your fitment I seen various posts on car forums about R888s being out of stock. I just bought the AO48s from Camskill rather than hunt around as they are very similar in performance or at least if you go for the medium compound.

I picked up my 13's for just over £200 from Demon Tweeks of all places. Cheapest I found online.

Their is no comparison with A048's which are a hell of a lot stickier having hammered the 48's on track and road and now tried some R888's.

IMHO the AO48 medium are quite similar to the R888s.

The soft AO48 are definitely stickier but of course wear quicker.

I had medium A048's on my car before and gave them a hard run both on the road and on Elvington airfield and even when pushed very hard, it was virtually impossible to get them to let go.

I can get my arse out so easily with the R888 on normal roads so god knows what they will be like on the track.

I only got the R888 because they were cheaper than A048's and I wanted something less sticky as the A048's were taking my car and wet sump beyond their limits on the track.
