I've been running 888's on my car all season. 250 hp escort MK2. I reckon they are OK in the dry & crap in the wet. They wear out very quickly though, did 6 sprint events, i.e. 20 laps of a track, roughly 40 miles before the canvas was showing. I'm comparing them with my regular tyre the Dunlop CR311, my prefernce would be these over the Toyo's anyday, but Toyo is sponsoring the championship so we get em cheap. Also Toyo is a road legal tyre, whereas CR311 is not.
