A few months ago I saw a notation on a Toyo web site that indicated that the R888 was replacing the RA-1. I can no longer find this notation. Does anyone know if this is true and are the R888's going to be legal in AI/CMC for 08?? FMR

Bringing this back to the top...

Frank, what size were those R888's you tested at TWS? I am reading that 275/40/17 is NOT available yet????

Those were Nitto NT01's 275/40/17's, not R888's. FMR

Be prepared for some cars being illegal once R888's are installed. I got a set of 275-40-17 for my LX. Each tire is 1/2" wider than the RA1's. I measures the inside lip of an unmounted R888 vs a RA1. The RA1 was 10.5", the R888 was 11".

This 16" is approx. 1/4 wider mounted.
A smidge larger OD as well.
I'll have one on display under the Argent Lab Pavillion at Hallett.

What's the going prices you guys are seeing for the R888s? I thought there were only going to be a few dollars more than the RA1s.

I got the RA1s last year from Boudy for a tick under 200ea shaved, but am only finding the R888s around 220ea unshaved.
