You just did rear? What's on the front?
Stock tires are still on front. They are still in good shape. They don't make the proxes 888 in the correct size for the front.
My plan was to get the Toyo's for a set of wheels to use when road racing, and an another set of wheels for street driving with drag radials. I'll be interested to hear your impressions after you'd had some time with them. I think the Toyo's look slick so I'd love for them to perform as well as a drag radial, I'm just not holding my breath.

They look good, and appear to have wider tread width compared to the stock Goodyears.
subbing 888s
He left us... Gonna have to put it away now.....
I too am still trying to pick tires..... Every other post recommends a different tire and different size.
305s will "work", but I woudl not personally do it. I do know of several guys running them on that set up though. I have 20x11s and I am running 305/35-20s, so I can imagine running them on a 9.5 is a bit of a stretch, especially with such a small sidewall
Which rear tires are you running?
Nitto 555Rs, because I sometimes get caught in rain. Like most DRs, they aren't real great when cold, but once they are warmed up, they manage my 575hp and 3.73 gears pretty decent.

That's another problem, a lot of great options, but none that seem to come in both sizes for the front and rear. Dunlop makes a great tire also, I think it's the O.E tire on the GTR's, but they only make the size that fits the rear.
How do you like the R888's? How's the road noise?
I like them a lot, they seem to be considerably more quite than the Nittos. Now that it is getting warmer, I should be able to get some decent driving done and find out how good they really are.
