R 888s

I've noticed that on Ebay they are nearly £100 per corner they've gone up by £20 or so, what have other people paid recently?

Toyo will only let motorsport agents sell r888's now, so stock is limited to those people pushing the price of the ones left in the old market up.

Bragain! I was paying £245 a pair for Dunlop 211gp's (bike race tyres) they have just gone up to £330 a pair! talking to my tyre supplier he tells me that all tyres have gone up, pretty much like everything else it's alot to do with the price of oil and energy costs, I work in the steel industry and we have had to put up the price of steel as the energy costs are crippling the company!

Just got a quote today from Camskil and had a shock
£144 a corner before delivery etc!
Would want it secured to a magnesium wheel for that kind of money!

This was for 185 60 R13

Rob

Just had a quick look and Avon CR 500s are £114 per corner so i might give these a go, plus they are lighter.

He price-matched Camskill. I'd rather spread the wealth around

Yes only the new distributors can sell NEW toyo 888s. Any people selling them that aren't on the list will have to sell used 888s only.
