Technology description:
Toyo R888 are premium tyres designed for sports cars. The model features a directional semi-slick tread pattern (a low number of grooves and a large contact area with the road surface). It's worth bearing in mind that its sporty tread pattern gives limited resistance to aquaplaning. Therefore, Toyo R888 is not recommended for everyday driving on wet surfaces.
Toyo R888 is a tyre intended for sports applications and performs excellently in amateur races. The model is manufactured using a soft, sport compound that ensures a good grip over a wide range of temperatures and guarantees a perfect transmission of the vehicle's power to the surface.
Toyo R888 tyres have perfect contact with the surface, which translates into driving precision and effective driver-tyre communication. The presented model offers excellent grip and stability during high-speed driving. This is thanks to its flat profile and wide tread.
The optimum distribution of pressures on the road results in a more even wear of the tyre, which prolongs its life.
The model is a perfect solution for drivers who prefer sporty and dynamic driving without compromising on safety.
