Its just a drive on one of my country's challenging mountain passes. Only this time i went prepared, as the car is on a new set of Toyo R888 R-compound semi-slicks. Those babies once hot, grip like crazy to the road.

Its like driving on rails, well almost.
The tires for their grip are a gr8 value, but nothing comes for free. Drawbacks are:

1- Noise: They are simply noisy, and the warmer they get the noisier they get.
I would assume that as they get worn, noise will increase.
2- Short tread life: They wear out quick, what do u expect of such soft rubber.
3- Out of temp Grip: When very cold they suck, when slightly warm they are ok. Just dont drive like they are warm unless ur sure they r.
4-Use only during dry season

any way here is the link to the vid.

I found myself wishing one of those BMWs would try playing with you so you could spank them! How come nobody wants to play with the little Benz?
