Okay guys... I'm on my first ever set of BRAND NEW tires...

call the toyo rep...

I used to scrub shaves with a 20 minute session at about 8/10ths and then put them in the corner of the garage over night.

The new 888's might have a different proceedure though so toyo tech line might be your best source for info.

My debacle at ECR is a good axample of old tires.
All of mine were old and were fast.
They are not if they havent been run recently.
R4 I had 2 that werent run in some time.
( 1 corded after R3, 1 flat just befor R4)
They didn't come in until the last lap or 2.
