lame.

being pushed into the r888 by your racing class too? spec e30 switched 6 months ago, and nobody is too happy about the r888.

yep, Spec Miata. I have enough tires to last at least the next 2 seasons, but they have changed my plans for me.

Man, if I didn't have too many tires already, I'd be all over this.

We see about half an RA1's life when switching to the R888 in Spec E30. Toyo is laughing all the way to the bank.

Actually, I've seen his list. I think that he's reaching critical mass. Janel OTOH, needs tires :P

Whats your location? (read: What kind of bread am I looking at to ship to NH/will you ship them)

Much like "the answer is always Miata", you can never have enough usable tires. You just never know if someone offers up a ride somewhere"if only we had some tires to put on it"

VA, I am more than willing to ship. Give me a zip, and I'll get the shipping quote

Wher in Va are you? I'm in Tidewater and am considering them for track day tires on a MINI.

Got your message to, but my "floating cash" is currently tied up in a B20 civic project that needs to get out of the garage.

Plus Christmas happened. Again. Damn holiday comes around every year it seems. . .

I'll hit you up towards the end of Jan, if you still have some left.
