Yeah, based on one of your posts is where I'm getting the 23psi target... so thanks King as usual always providing knowledge.


Ohhh and by the way... the results posted before are NO burnouts or anything extra to get heat in them... just a hot day in Florida and a 6-8min drive on to the highway before ripping it.
They have about 100 miles in now (getting the new tire grease out) so they should perform a bit better.

Overall, happy with them.
Good stuff, thank you both!

I guess I dont understand, you have a 900 wheel car and your worried about the tires being to loud?? I have a 416 NA car, 700 wheel, 2in headers, no cats, AWE mufflers and Ive been running the R888s for 3000 miles. I have yet to hear my tires over my exhaust. Mine are 325/30/20 and they hook great around 30 psi, on the street. However All of my rear suspension is BMR.

Well N/A explains alot. You guys go all out. I have npp exhaust i do use thebflaps closed very often and also when cruising they close themselves and also had stereo upgraded BUT tire noise is VERY annoying. My ear catches everything.

Butni understand your confusion. I ended with the Nitto’s suggested here the new R2 and they go a great hob in the 60mph range i have yet to bring psi down to 23psi since i havent needed to do anything lower than 60mph but ill try it eventually.

I think I saw you the other day. We raced, by coincidence, one random day before you popped the LT1 with the LT4 blower. I was in my Z06 before the mods. Man that was probably a few years ago now down in Mexico when I was out running errands.

Anyhow random lol
