Tempted for a spare set lol I used Tyre leader for my last set of the older 888 only problem was delivery can either be quick or painfully slow lol almost thought I was gonna be getting ripped off and no tyres turning up last time, but they did eventually.

 

[Martin.]

Anyone tried these new R888Rs yet?

Must be different compounds?

 

[Martin.]

Is GG soft and the other one medium?

 

[bashracing]

GG= medium
SG= soft
IIRC

 

[Martin.]

Toyo website implies GG is a soft.

 

[Andy93]

I've always known GG to be medium

 

[MarkX]

I got 6 x GG compounds for £67 each on oponeo not long ago, just keep an eye on the ever changing prices

 

[StuOwen86]

Were they the newer 888-R like these @MarkX or the older 888? I got the older 888 for £63 on Tyre Leader (think it was £63 lol not far off though)

 

[charltjr]

GG is "soft" in Toyo terms but seems like everyone else calls it medium. They call SG super-soft or something so basically GG is the harder one and SG is the softer one.

I need a new pair of 888's for the front of the car for next year so I'll be keeping an eye out.
