The Toyo Proxes R888 are here, now I am really gonna get impatient waiting for the wheels. All should be ready when things cool down again and track weekends resume!

The R888's are a great tire! Not as sticky as a drag radial but veryyy good for a road course or multiple duties. Definitely gonna get them againon my kinesis wheels when the current set is done
